These processes can result in music genres that lean towards sound homogenization, a phenomenon that could gradually restrict adolescents’ access to the acoustic richness of other music styles that have emerged throughout history. The objective of this work was to analyse the music genres favoured by a sample of Spanish adolescents (n=464), based on their acoustic qualities (timbre, rhythm and dynamics). The results of the automatic analysis indicated a great deal of overlap in terms of sound, which corroborated the homogeneous character of the genres. This calls for an approach to secondary music education that helps preserve musical richness and stylistic variety in the classroom.15 p.application/pdfengcc-by-nc-nd (c) Faure-Carvallo, A. et al., 2022http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/Ensenyament de la músicaAdolescentsMusic educationTeenagersinfo:eu-repo/semantics/article7227082024-05-09info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess
