Description:
This article discusses the emergence of a community of practice of student-teachers in music in a Brazilian university outreach program called Musicalização Infantil. It starts with a short introduction to the concept of community of practice. Next, a brief history of the program is presented to contextualize the study, followed by a description of three episodes that took place while the author was program coordinator and student-teacher mentor. These episodes provide a background against which to discuss how the concept of community of practice may be related to music teacher education. Implications for music education, locally and globally, are articulated at the end of the article.
