Description:This article shows an empirical research situated in the field of musical performance. Its aim is to find out musicians’ thoughts about musical expressiveness and its teaching, in order to deepen and advance in their knowledge and didactic approach. The study, which follows a descriptive method, was carried out with 219 subjects, including teachers and students from a conservatory. The methodological approach applied is quantitative, based on the calculation of basic descriptive statistics, and focused on administering to the participants a questionnaire prepared specifically for the research. The results show that the level of comprehension and emotional intelligence are factors that influence expressiveness, and that this is the most valued characteristic by a performer. On the other hand, it is verified that the work of expressiveness within the performance creation process does not follow standardized guidelines and is taught with different didactic strategies, which normally attend to the student's academic level, although models based on the use of metaphors and technical instructions prevail. Finally, it is concluded that the teaching of expressiveness should be standardized.
