Relato do processo interpretativo na execução de quatro canções do compositor José Amat (1818–1881): “Barcarolla”, “A Deus e a ti”, “Un Ange Envole” e “Addio”.

Abstract

This Course Conclusion Paper presents an experience report based on the study and performance of four songs by the composer José Amat: Barcarolla, A Deus e a ti, Un ange envole, and Addio. The choice of this repertoire was due to its suitability to the tessitura of my light lyric tenor voice and to the guidance of my singing teacher. The aim of the study was to understand how these works could contribute to my technical and interpretative development in classical singing, as well as to my academic training. Throughout this process, it was possible to improve aspects such as legato, breath control, vocal agility in fast passages, diction in French and Italian, and the interpretative construction of the pieces. The songs studied presented specific challenges that required the development of study strategies, together with exercises proposed by the teacher, which allowed for the gradual improvement of my performance. The study of these four songs contributed significantly to my vocal and interpretative development, fostering greater critical awareness of vocal practice.
