Dissertação (Mestrado em Música) - Escola de Música, Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte, Natal, 2023.https://repositorio.ufrn.br/handle/123456789/52373Knowing the universe of music bands is essential for a music educator, considering the existence of multiple contexts in which this professional can work today. Understanding this need, this qualitative research aims to understand how the band Jacques Klein from the city of Aracati(CE) develops its musical performance in the city, incorporating elements and aspects of tradition and modernity in its socio-musical and educational performance. Methodologically, an ethnographic case study was carried out, which made it possible to gather important information from different data collection techniques. The following techniques were used: observations, semi-structured interviews and questionnaires with some musicians, the maestro and some citizens of the city. The theoretical bases used for data analysis revolved around the concepts of performance and local music from Bauman (1975), Béhague (1984), Berger and Luckmann (1991), Geertz (1973, 2008), Goffman (1990), Seeger (2004, 2008, 2015) and Reily (2021). From the constructed and analyzed data, I found that the band Jacques Klein is currently a cultural equipment maintained by the city hall that offers a musical service to institutions and social groups in the city and its districts; that the band's musical performances are built from a network of relationships between conductors, musicians and city citizens according to the types of event; that the band's performances are diverse and that is why the repertoire undergoes continuous modifications; that the band's repertoire has undergone processes of historical and dynamic incorporation in the past and at present that the conductor is a fundamental agent in the processes ofselection, manipulation and definition of the repertoire, but that he is directly influenced by the people who organize a certain event during the choice of songs; and that some musicians present ways of thinking and performing certain songs from the band’s repertoire based on their own musicalities, which are generally not found in the score. The perception of these, among others elements showed me that the musical performance of the band has a sociocultural dimension that brings a significant contribution, both to the epistemological development of the field of band studies in Brazil and to music educators in training.Acesso AbertoBanda de músicaPerformance musicalEquipamento culturalmasterThesisCNPQ::LINGUISTICA, LETRAS E ARTES::ARTES::MUSICA
