RESUMO

Prisoner of the urgency of the moment, freed by the antenna, which catches and feels everything, the artist looks beyond it all. Fed by the repertoire of transformations that other generations have printed to the art, instigated by the search of what he lacks in the present and by the necessity to produce the new, the inventor (he is delirious) and he idealizes other realities. In the hiperbolic days of the contemporary world, immersed in speed, interactivity and information, the artist faces new challenges. The Brazilian popular composer works within the proliferation of musical styles which come from hardly defined borders and makes use of new technologies in the creation process. The doors of the new century open unlimited horizons for the musical invention. Among this confusion of possibilities, the artist filters elements that can become raw material for his expression. Believing that the transformation of music depends on the choices, conscience and talent of the artist, this study intends to investigate the cultural context of the beginning of this century and the inheritance bequeathed by the inventors of Brazilian Popular Music. It also rethinks the system of Brazilian urban music and elects influences to be used. To think about ways to escape from gastronomic music (in the expression of Umberto Eco) and to get to the critical and inventiveness song is a form of believing that the unusual is feasible even in the days of saturated information like nowadays.
