Abstract

Higher education in music suffered a profound change due to the entry of the LOGSE, (Education Law introduced in 2001 – 2002 at high grade). This Research analyzes upper division courses in the conservatories of A Coruña and Vigo from different perspectives. The methodology is descriptive, with a mixed approach, using quantitative and qualitative information gathering techniques. The main conclusions from the results show a profile of students mostly between 19 and 25, 35% of them attend or have attended college, and 51% work. Among the elements most valued by teachers are the entrance exam, the students' performance, and finalyear concerts or theses. Students value positively instrumental and theoretical training. Among the least appreciated are material resources and infrastructures, orchestral training, and the existence of a gap between pedagogic issues and research fields. Besides, there is a contradiction between the main thrust of higher education and the labor situation, and an urgent resolution of the regulations, which greatly impair their development, governing these higher centers, has become necessary.
