RESUMO

Friar Bernardino Bortolotti (1896-1966) was a Franciscan priest who lived for about three decades in Lages, state of Santa Catarina, Brazil, working as a musician, conductor and composer. The friar worked locally in the ecclesiastical administration and in the Catholic press, acting at the same time in sacred musical practice as a composer and choir director. By the time of his arrival, in the end of the 1930 decade, there was a busy artistic-musical scene in the city, to which the friar maintained certain degree of relationship. Linked to his religious path, the musical formation of the friar developed during the validity of Motu Proprio Tra Le Sollicitudini (code of musical laws written by the Pope Pius X in 1903); beyond this, his music was also influenced by composers of the cecilian movement. In Friar Bernardino Bortolottis musical work, pieces for 4-voice choir prevail. During the years that he lived in Lages, his activities (as a priest, musician, Catholic journalist or ecclesiastical leader) put Friar Bernardino in a particular position of centrality which granted him a role of mediation among several different social groups
