This study analyzed the academic production on wind bands in Brazil from 2021 to 2024, as a continuation of the survey conducted by Silva et al. (2023), published in the journal Música Hodie, which covered publications from 2009 to 2020. The research followed an integrative review protocol, focusing on theses, dissertations, and articles published and indexed in national databases. After screening 425 works, 77 studies were selected for the final sample, including 36 dissertations, 34 articles, and 7 doctoral theses. The methodology involved a bibliometric analysis and a lexicographic analysis, the latter supported by the IRaMuTeQ software. The results highlight the journals and institutions with the highest number of publications, as well as the predominance of studies with a historical and cultural focus, followed by themes related to teaching and learning processes. It is expected that this work will contribute to a better understanding of the research landscape on wind bands at the national level, identifying gaps and possible directions for future studies.
