“…Por tanto, el derecho a cultivar los valores de la propia cultura e identidad cultural en una sociedad multiétnica, como son la mayoría de las sociedades en la actualidad, es indiscutible. No obstante, si consideramos el multiculturalismo como un mosaico en el que conviven grupos diversos, cada uno de ellos con su propia cultura, obtenemos una ‘visión estática de la cultura’ (Parlić Božović, 2014, p. 685). La restricción y el estancamiento de una cultura da lugar a etnocentrismo, xenofobia y egoísmo, intolerancia nacional, religiosa y cultural, prejuicio y otros fenómenos negativos para la sociedad.…”

This paper discusses the role of traditional folk songs and dances in the development of intercultural communication among elementary school children. Since we live in a multicultural society, it is necessary to develop the awareness of young people regarding the need to nurture harmonious relations among nations. The paper outlines the results of the empirical research aimed at determining whether the eighth-grade students from Central Serbia and Kosovo and Metohija know which nations live in their region and what their traditional songs and dances are. The results of the survey show that most students know the nations living in their vicinity but do not know their traditional songs and dances. This indicates that this kind of information and teaching content were not recognized and used as a means of interethnic connection, getting familiar with and understanding other nations. Traditional songs and dances can be a significant factor of successful intercultural communication in elementary schools if teachers recognize and use their potential. Descriptive method as well as the analysis and synthesis were used in this paper. RESUMENEn este artículo se discute el papel de las canciones y danzas folclóricas tradicionales en el desarrollo de la comunicación intercultural entre los alumnos de la educación primaria. Dado que vivimos en una sociedad multicultural, es necesario desarrollar los conocimientos de los jóvenes sobre la necesidad de cultivar relaciones armoniosas entre las naciones. En este artículo se presentan los resultados de una investigación empírica cuyo objetivo era determinar si los estudiantes de 8º grado de la región central de Serbia, Kosovo y Metojia, conocen las distintas naciones que conviven en su región y sus canciones y danzas tradicionales. Los resultados de la encuesta muestran que la mayoría de los escolares conocen las distintas comunidades de su entorno, pero no ARTICLE HISTORY

Starting from the fact that from the onset of formal education students encounter choral singing as an activity successively linked to general music education, the paper emphasizes the importance of using movement as a pedagogical tool for the development of immanent rhythm, vocal technique, and intonation in working with children's choirs. The main purpose of this research is to systematize the experience gained in the transnational project "Vox Mundi" carried out in Temisoara, Romania in 2022 in order to point to potential choices and future approaches to movement at choral rehearsals at general music education level. In the course of a ten-day intensive youth exchange, five multiplicative events, and the elaboration of three intellectual outcomes, a survey was conducted, with the sample including 50 elementary school choir singers, members of choral organizations of five partner countries (Romania, Serbia, Poland, France and Hungary). By reviewing and unifying the exercises from different choral music activities, we modeled an approach to specific general music education resources with the aim of acquiring the skills and competencies necessary for using movement with polyphonic singing. A significant level of advantages of integrating movement and singing was identified, while the correlation between the delibarate use of movement and an increased engagement was also identified as a factor that was consistently present. In addition, it was discovered that movement and music can illustrate emotional meaning of music and improve relationships among choral singers. This article focuses on practical suggestions which can provide new points for discussion on the necessity of using movement in working with members of children's choirs, children who are in the first or second cycle of elementary education.
