Abstract:
In the last two decades, the Brazilian music scenario has been marked by an increasingly academic-oriented interest in studying and applying musical knowledge stemming from African-heritage. Institutions and researchers from Salvador city hold an important role in the development and dissemination of this type of knowledge. Accordingly, this article’s general aim is to discuss possible implications of the application of African-based musical knowledge in the study of non-African-based instruments, focusing on the Soteropolitan context.

Abstract:
Gambiarra is a popular Brazilian expression that describes an improvised and informal way of solving an everyday problem when needed tools or resources are not available. Since the turn of the 21st century, the term gambiarra has been a part of Brazilian art discourse. This article first analyzes the genealogy of the word gambiarra, including its global and local contexts, and then looks at the use of gambiarra in the production of music and sound art instruments, or gambioluthiery.

Abstract Careful research has shown that the Brazilian composer’s works are inaccurate in terms of indications yet respecting every parameter of music.

Abstract Villa-Lobos’s Nonet is one of the most extraordinary pieces of chamber music ever written. Its scoring, founded on ideas from the Sexteto mistico and the Quarteto simb6lico, pushes the definition of ‘chamber’ to absurd limits: flute/piccolo, oboe, clarinet, saxophone, bassoon, celesta, harp, piano, a large percussion section using 18 instruments and requiring at least two players, and a mixed chorus dividing into, at most, 12 parts. All the disparate strands which lay together in the Canfiies tipicas were, in the Nonet, at last reconciled.

Excerpts from European opera, Brazilian bossa nova, and American R&amp;B and hip-hop demonstrate some ways in which singers weave their lines around the accompaniment’s beat, tempo, and accents. Such phrasing creates rich composite textures that can be understood as co-occurring layers rather than in a figure/ground, meter-centric conception. Particular attention is paid to the contrapuntal relationship between the voice and the snare drum backbeat. The ratios and note values introduced i

Chapter 6 discusses the Nzinga Berimbau Orchestra, a berimbau ensemble formed by members of a capoeira angola group headquartered in Bahia. Led by Mestra Janja and Mestre Poloca, this orchestra explores new repertoires beyond capoeira, and utilizes the berimbau in new contexts—dissociated from capoeira’s physical expression, in the concert hall. The chapter begins by discussing the role and perceptions of the berimbau in capoeira and Brazilian popular music and moves on to explain the various strands grounding the Bantu-centric rhetoric of the Nzinga orchestra. Remaining close to capoeira aest

Abstract I took all my instruments with me on the S.S. Uruguay. When we played on deck as the ship was going in and out of port, I played valve trombone. During the evening dance sets I played both bass and drums: bass on the American tunes and drums on the Latin ones. I knew how to play tangos, rhumbas, and sambas, but I had to be taught the baion by a passenger, a Brazilian lady. When the guy she was with complained that we weren’ t playing authentic Latin music, I told him, “Wait ‘ til you hear this next one. It’ s called ‘ Caveat Emptor.’ “ Before we reached our first port of call, Trinida

Abstract:
This paper presents the development process of “TumTá”, a wearable Digital Dance and Music Instrument that triggers sound samples from foot stomps and “Pisada,” a dance-enabled MIDI pedalboard. It was developed between 2012 and 2017 for the use of Helder Vasconcelos, a dancer and musician formed by the traditions of Cavalo Marinho and Maracatu Rural from Pernambuco. The design of this instrument was inspired by traditional instruments like the Zabumba and by the gestural vocabulary from Cavalo Marinho, to make music and dance at the same time. The development process of this instrument is des

Abstract:
This is a concert proposal of Brazilian digital art, which brings in its creative core the historical and cultural aspects of certain locations in Brazil. The term ​ Tecnofagia derives from an allusion to the concept of anthropophagic movement (artistic movement started in the twentieth century founded and theorized by the poet Oswald de Andrade and the painter Tarsila do Amaral). The anthropophagic movement was a metaphor for a goal of cultural swallowing where foreign culture would not be denied but should not be imitated. In his notes, Oswald de Andrade proposes the "cultural devouring of i
