RESUMO

The main objective of this Master s Thesis is to study the text/music relations - with special attention to the piano part - of the religious art songs of the Brazilian composer José Antônio Rezende de Almeida Prado. The texts of these songs are either Biblical, Roman Catholic Church Prayers, or texts and prayers written by Saints. To achieve this objective, an analysis of various musical aspects (rhythm, harmonic and melodic structures, color, texture and form) was done. Through the analysis of these aspects of each song, not only it was possible to clearly define the text/music relationship but also to demonstrate the expressive importance of the piano. The findings contribute to better understand the interpretation of these songs as well as divulge a portion of the artistic production of Almeida Prado. Included in this work are: 1) a biography of the composer; 2) a catalog of his compositions; 3) copies of alI the songs discussed (volume II of the Thesis)
