This article aims to analyze the benefits of Music in the modification of behaviour, self-confidence, empathy, self-esteem and social abilities, as a result of an experience performed during a school year carried out with a secondary education class (4th year of Obligatory Secondary Education 12-16 years) in Coruña (Spain). Due to the impossibility to develop successfully the educational work, due to academic delay students and their discipline it was decided to put into practice in regular classroom a work model designed after putting together knowledge in the fields of music pedagogy, music therapy, and emotional intelligence. To develop this work, several instruments have been used to diagnose the problems and, once the results were obtained, to redesign the methodology through classical music and check the in the parameters mentioned before through Music. This new approach gives an innovative character to musical teaching, and with it we bank on the importance of finding new motivating strategies in the teaching-learning process. After putting this experience into practice, we can confirm the hypothesis that through music you can improve performance, as the results show the benefits that can come from the use of music as a tool in the modification of certain behaviours, since using the right strategies it may be used as an enhancer of tolerant behaviours, through the application of new test and academic performance as it has been corroborated that 100% of the sample improved their self-esteem, self-confidence, their social abilities, the number of conflicts decreased and the students started working in groups.
