Updating with more information:
The board I have is this:
I'm trying this other code. I think it was written for Arduino Uno. I am using ESP32. Even so, with hope, I did a pin assignment but the serial monitor only showed: VS1053 not found.

I use a separate SD CARD module because the VS1003 board does not have one.
The PASI colleague responded by indicating another topic. I visited this other topic and went to the page that contains example codes for several microcontrollers. There I downloaded this ZIP which has 3 source codes and 1 PDF:
But, unfortunately, my knowledge (almost zero) prevents me from creating a test code in the Arduino IDE so that I can record on the esp32 and achieve my goal, which is just recording my voice on the SD CARD in OGG or MP3 format.
That's why I'm making this new post here in the hope that someone who wants to help can make this interaction. It will definitely help a lot of people who might be looking for the same thing.
The board I'm using has the VS1003b chip and not VS1053. That's why it doesn't record in OGG or MP3. I bought it in a hurry and didn't know about this detail. In fact, what made me not look so closely was seeing it painted white on the edge of the VS1003 / VS1053 board.
Recording from the microphone to the memory card in OGG or MP3 will not work with this card.
