Title: Inquietação: Laurindo Almeida e a relação de confluência entre o jazz e a música popular do Brasil no período entre 1953 e 1963 Abstract: This study investigates how the rhythmic approach of Brazilian guitarist Laurindo Almeida, considered one of the forerunners of bossa nova, may have contributed to the rhythmic conception of João Gilberto’s guitar style. It also examines whether, after bossa nova had established itself as a distinct genre, it impacted Almeida's later performances, without disregarding the historical, social, and geographical context in which the musician was immersed. The study further highlights the presence of cultural hybridity, evidenced by similar nuances and references. Analyses are presented of songs from the albums Brazilliance, Stan Getz with Laurindo Almeida, and O amor, o sorriso e a flor considering the confluence between jazz and bossa nova during the period from 1953 to 1963, particularly regarding the guitar accompaniment featured on these recordings. Without seeking to assign value judgments, establish hierarchies between styles, or identify a "paternity" for bossa nova – nor to diminish João Gilberto’s significance – this paper aims to understand this process in a broad and critical way, as a two-way street marked by mutual influences and transformations.

Title: Aqui, oh!: as composições de Toninho Horta e Fernando brant sob uma ótica técnico-musical Abstract: This work aimed to investigate the technical-musical elements that constitute the compositional style of Toninho Horta and Fernando Brant, which can be identified in the seven songs created by the duo and recorded between 1969 and 1980. To this end, in addition to recordings, the scores contained in Toninho Horta’s 108 Partituras Songbook were used as references, since these versions were reviewed by the composer himself. The analytical descriptions were based on the identification and discussion of elements such as harmonic progressions, motives, phrases, rhythmic patterns, melodic patterns, and the relationship between music and lyrics. The study also sought to establish relationships between the poetics involved in the works and the historical-musical context corresponding to the period of their production. This study demonstrates that the duo articulated musical elements associated with Bossa Nova, Clube da Esquina, and pop music with lyrics that incorporate references to everyday life, personal memories, geographical displacements, and political events related to the historical context of their production, thereby arriving at an identity.

Title: A aprendizagem musical de crianças: uma experiência de composição de canções para um teatro musical Abstract: The aim of this study is to understand how musical learning takes place during a collaborative composition of songs for a musical theater by elementary school children in a school setting. The research framework is underpinned by pedagogical principles (HERNANDES, 1998; PRADO, 2005; BENDER, 2014; GUEDES et al., 2017), creative learning (CRAFT; JEFFREY; LEIBLING, 2001; ALENCAR, 2007; LUBART, 2007; MITJÁNS MARTINES, 2014; RESNICK, 2020) and the composition process (BERKLEY, 2001; FAUTLEY, 2004). The methodology which was employed consists of qualitative research and data collection was carried out by means of videos, photographs and interviews with pupils (CHRISTENSEN; JAMES, 2017). The findings highlighted the capacity the children had to articulate song lyrics, improvise melodies and rhythms and understand the structure of music. In addition, they were able to learn about key psycho-social factors and group skills which are essential for human development and acquiring a more suitable grown-up lifestyle.

Title: Ouvintes e relações de escuta musical no espaço digital do Spotify Abstract: This work aims to understand listeners' music listening relationships on Spotify space, in order to analyze its constitution and functioning as a digital space for music listening, to explore the listeners' connections with the streaming service, to understand the organization and transformation of listening practices, and to reveal the relationships established by listeners with their own listening within this space. The dissertation presents a series of quantitative and qualitative analyses, derived from responses to a questionnaire prepared during the research and administered to a group of 111 Spotify users. The study incorporates critical theoretical approaches from several classic authors, with notable reference to Theodor W. Adorno (1985, 2017, 2020) and Walter Benjamin (2012), and contemporary authors, such as Robert Prey (2015, 2020) and Jack Webster (2022), regarding debates on music listening, technology and society. The research findings highlight the emergence of diverse listening relationships that shape listening practices, habits, conceptions, and experiences on Spotify. Transformations are detected in the musical preferences, listening modes, temporality and spatiality of listeners' musical listening after using the streaming service. Additionally, gender, race, and generational factors emerge as influential elements in the constitution of listening practices within an algorithmic environment.
