Musical illiteracy is a global issue that focuses on the appreciation of musical works. Among musical genres, popular music is most preferred by the public, making it a challenge for Arts Education to enhance its appreciation. The objective was to propose a didactic approach for developing the process of appreciating Cuban popular music within the Arts Education program at the University of Pinar del Río. A combination of theoretical methods (historical-logical and modeling) and empirical methods (document analysis, observation, and surveys) were employed. These, along with pedagogical testing, helped assess the state of popular music appreciation among Arts Education students. The main outcome is a Didactic Concept that emphasizes essential principles and introduces three scientific ideas. These ideas offer a fresh perspective on the teaching and learning process in the course "Artistic Expressions I," specifically for appreciating Cuban popular music.
