We assume that the cartography of a cultural expression is expressed through the representation of the scale of social action in the production of geographical space and has its significance, since we can highlight its concreteness through maps.

    CLEISON LEITE FERREIRA Departamento de Geografia – Universidade de Brasília – Unb [email protected] Expansão geográfica nacional e internacional dos elementos do Maracatu-Nação e a formação de grupos de maracatu no Brasil e no mundo Introdução O Maracatu-Nação é uma manifestação cultural afro-brasileira que tem seu território de origem e de referência identitária a Região Metropolitana do Recife-PE (RMR). Originário no século XIX de antigas práticas sociais da população africana de eleger e coroar reis e rainhas do Congo em Pernambuco, o Maracatu-Nação caracteriza- se por um cortejo real negro que sai às ruas dos centros e das periferias das cidades da RMR. Em momentos festivos, sobretudo no carnaval, desfilam com seus personagens – que são os elementos da corte real – devidamente ornados para a ocasião. São reis e rainhas, príncipes e princesas, vassalos, damas da corte, damas do paço com suas calungas (ou bonecas) e porta pálio (que carrega um grande sombreiro sobre a realeza). Acompanham a corte outros elementos simbólico-religiosos, como orixás, caboclos, ciganas, com seus turbantes, guias ou colares e calungas. Há ainda uma orquestra percussiva que executa a parte musical. Os elementos que compõem a parte percussiva de um Maracatu-Nação são seus instrumentos musicais e seus batuqueiros: alfaia (bombo ou tambor), caixa de guerra, tarol, mineiro e gonguê. Algumas Nações1 têm inovado com outros instrumentos, tais como atabaque, agbê, timbal e patangome. O Maracatu-Nação, essencial e obrigatoriamente, é associado ao Xangô (religião de culto aos orixás) e à Jurema Sagrada (religião ameríndia de culto às entidades 1 Na Região Metropolitana do Recife foram identificados 27 Maracatus-Nação no ano de 2013.

Como são suas participações no canto e composição das músicas? Que significados e valores dão suporte a estas práticas e como se relacionam com o significado e valor da música nestas duas brincadeiras? Baseia-se em dados de pesquisa de campo, realizada em Recife-PE e São Luís-MA entre 2009/10 e com suporte de investigações de anos anteriores. Constata-se que a performance musical, especialmente instrumentos e canto, classificados como masculinos e femininos, ordena e orienta a inserção de homens e mulheres, concorrendo para a organização e a forma de apresentação dos grupos de maracatu e bumba meu boi. Geram- se hierarquias que justificam poderes diferenciados, dando sustentação a desigualdades nas relações de gênero.

  • Candomblé Rhythms for Drum Kit
    A Cannibalist's Manifesto: Candomblé Rhythms for Drum Kit Peter Alastair McGrath-Kerr ORCID: 0000-0002-8965-7046 This thesis is submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. Melbourne Conservatorium of Music Faculty of Fine Arts and Music University of Melbourne May, 2019 Abstract Afro-Brazilian rhythms from the tradition of Candomblé have had a significant influence on Brazilian secular music. That influence can be found in samba, choro, Brazilian jazz, and popular music. Although Candomblé and associated musical practices have been investigated by musicologists and sociologists, the rhythmic and contemporary performance aspects are poorly represented in academia. As an Australian musician with a long-time interest in Brazilian music, it became a natural progression for me to develop an interest in the rhythms that form the basis of so much Brazilian music. As a drummer, my research has involved the adaptation of traditional drumming practices to the modern drum kit, with an emphasis on groove creation and improvisation. This is a creative research project that combines recordings with analysis. My processes and outcomes will in part be analysed relative to Oswaldo de Andrade's Manifesto Antropofágico (the Cannibalist Manifesto) - where the cultural cannibal seeks to absorb multiple and diverse influences in order to create something new. 2 Statement of Originality I certify that the intellectual content of this thesis is the product of my own work and that all the assistance received in preparing this thesis and sources have been acknowledged. This thesis has not been submitted for any degree or other purpose, and is fewer than the maximum word limit in length.

Everything is made and needs to be done for “now”. If we put attention, we will see that almost in every scale of our existence, like our economic system, the way that we see life and understand life, and the way that we face the problems are based in what gives us more profit now and how we can have an immediate solution for some specific issue, without really concerning about the future. We live in a system where the people look for “immediate solutions” in order to solve “immediate problems”. And therefore, we are used to develop a superficial knowledge about one subject, instead of really knowing it deeply.

  • Partake: the Journal of Performance As Research Volume 3, Issue 2 – March 2021 ISSN: 2472-0860
    PARtake: The Journal of Performance as Research Volume 3, Issue 2 – March 2021 ISSN: 2472-0860 Americans Performing Afro-Brazilian maracatu and afoxé: Navigating Race, Religion, Appropriation, and the Potential of Anti-Racist Pedagogy Cory LaFevers, MM, PhD – Texas A&M University World music ensembles offer considerable potential for raising awareness of a diverse array of socio-cultural issues. However, all too often presentations of world music and dance overly romanticize their ability to foster cross-cultural understanding, or they are dismissed outright as performing a multiculturalism that reinforces racial stereotypes. This article explores Performance as Research (PAR) with Afro-Brazilian music and dance ensembles in Austin, Texas, specifically focusing on how performance can inform anti-racist pedagogies. I draw from ethnographic research, over six years’ participation in the scene, and continuing pedagogical engagement with ensemble members to examine teaching, learning, and performing samba as well as maracatu-nação and afoxé— musics explicitly linked to Afro-matrix religions. PAR provides us with a framework for engaging with the contradictions and complexities of Austinites performing Afro- Brazilian music and dance. I argue that experiences gained in performance uncover the localized embodiment of (trans)national spatio-racial formations, and become the essential components in implementing anti-racist pedagogies that advance efforts to optimize cross-cultural understanding and sustain engagement with communities by facilitating collaborations between culture-bearers, academics, and artists. PAR and Brazilian Music in Austin Recently, scholars have investigated the rapid proliferation of Brazilian music ensembles around the world, producing studies on samba, capoeira, and tambor de crioula in such cities as Toronto, Montreal, New York, New Orleans, as well as in Wales and New Zealand.1 Home to at least 15 active Brazilian music and dance ensembles, Austin is clearly part of this global trend.
