School ensemble-based methodologies are internationally well established, although their implementation in Spain remains limited and scarcely explored in academic research. The aim of this study is to identify the differences associated with the use of these methodologies in terms of musical consumption habits and musical practice among secondary school students in the Community of Madrid. The sample consisted of 691 students from eight secondary schools. Data were collected using a seven-item questionnaire.The results show differences between students participating in school musical ensembles and those not involved in these types of methodologies, particularly in variables related to interest in music and cultural participation. The study discusses the possibility that this type of music teaching format may be associated with meaningful learning experiences and a greater predisposition toward musical consumption and practice, as well as the existing barriers to its implementation within the Spanish educational system. Finally, the study highlights the need for further research into the role that certain meaningful musical experiences in general education may play and how these could influence the development of cultural habits and youth participation in this sector.
