%X This study investigated the role of education councils in Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil, in implementing legislation on music education in basic education. Using a qualitative approach and documentary research, we examined the legislation, opinions, and normative acts of these councils. Our findings show both the progress and challenges in policy implementation. Content analysis identified patterns and trends within the examined documents, providing a comprehensive understanding of the issued regulations. It transpired that approximately 80% of the municipalities in Rio Grande do Sul, have not yet complied with the requirement to establish supplementary regulations for music education, as mandated by CNE/CEB Resolution No. 2/2016. This study emphasizes the need to strengthen educational legislation and promote collaboration among public agencies for effective policy implementation. The practical implications underscore the importance of increased engagement of education councils in effectively integrating music into the school curriculum to the benefit of educators, students, and the community.
