This study offers an comparative analysis on the Music Education designs in the educative systems of the seven French-speaking cantons of Switzerland. A parametric conceptual structure was conceived starting from the cultural and educational contexts of each canton. Some differences are observed concerning the name to designate this discipline, the weekly time and the organization. Some similarities are observed with regard to the cantonal study plans, the projects and the methodology use. This comparison of musical education suggests an application on the next changes of the Music education curricula in the French-speaking part of Switzerland.
