WUNSCH, Luana. THE CATEURA RECYCLED ORCHESTRA: MUSIC THAT TEACHES IN THE CONTEXT OF GARBAGE. Revista Teias [online]. 2018, vol.19, n.53, pp.198-207.  Epub Feb 19, 2020. ISSN 1982-0305.  https://doi.org/10.12957/teias.2018.33083.

The present interview with Professor Favio Chavez, founder and founder of the Orquestra de Reciclados de Cateura, exposes the presuppositions of society and education that come from this project. During an on-site survey in the community of Cateura, Asunción, Paraguay, in the second half of 2017, the author noticed the public motivation to address global issues of extreme poverty. However, the transformation of this social space through the music that is produced alongside it, with instruments made with materials collected in the same way, into the largest landfill in Paraguay, is also intensely reported by the same population. From this point of view, there is an interview of a qualitative nature about the foundation, relationships, spaces and times that emerge from an action that is not linked to any formal provider of education and which today is considered one of the most relevant proposals of contextualization of art and education of South America.

Keywords : Music Teaching; Social Inclusion; Recycled Musical Instruments.
