RESUMO

This work proposes an analytical investigation of the symphonic Work Brasília Sinfonia da Alvorada (1961). Our aim is to comprehend the compositional process of Antônio Carlos Jobim (1927-1994) by studying how the composer treated the symphonic material. The poetic set of ideas created after the composer went to the city of Brasília at the time of its construction indicates the existence of a narrative program conducting the play. This has been initially perceived through the texts recited by Vinícius de Moraes during the recording of the Work, as well as through the texts written by Antônio Carlos Jobim on the LP back cover. Thus we performed an analytical investigation to reveal subthreshold levels between these principles and the musical material. We tried, through this investigation, to discriminate and highlight: the articulation of ideas and musical conceptions present in Jobims compositional process, his creation and development work, the use of non-musical extra materials, techniques and languages, self quotations and the assimilation and use of reference works of other composers. We intend to do a direct and specific reflection of his work, trying to increase and renew its concepts.
