Music therapy began to develop in Minas Gerais in the 1970s and has grown considerably in recent years, due to the opening of the undergraduate course at the Federal University of Minas Gerais (UFMG). This descriptive and exploratory study aimed to investigate the remuneration of the professional musictherapist in Belo Horizonte and the metropolitan region, through the development and distribution of an on line questionnaire in 2018. The questionnaire item said dress questions about values charged per session and the relationship between values, professional places and session modalities (individual / group). In all 19 music therapists who answered the questionnaire, aged 22 to 53 years old, most graduated from UFMG between 2013 and 2018. The remuneration per session varied widely, both in individual and group sessions and in the various professional places reported, with a minimum value of R$45.00 and a maximum of R$300.00 Reais. Among the data collected, geographic location and different professional places were determining factors for this variation. From these results, it is expected tocontribute with reflections on entrepreneurship and the development of music therapy in the studied region and Brazil.
