In the art of interpretation and its teaching, the musical analysis become an essential tool as a source of intellectual knowledge of the work. Through the teaching of the sound-graphic analysis methodology, students can simultaneously obtain a global view of the work and another fragmented in different parameters. In the present study, with a sample of students enrolled in the subject Analysis of music of the twentieth and twenty-first centuries (Analysis III) of the Degree of Music of International University of La Rioja (UNIR), has been studied, among other relations of variables, the degree on learning by parameters and the satisfaction with the methodoloy use. Using statistical techniques such as variable correlation, linear regression and data consistency, an ex-post-facto retrospective and crosssectional design has been developed. The analytical parameters in which the students based the bulk of their learning on the subjects of Analysis I, Analysis II and Analysis III - included in three consecutive school years - were formal structure, texture, sentence form and style traits. The results of the statistical tests show a greater sensation of learning in function of the evaluation of the courses taken, compared to the obtained qualification.
