CONCERTO DOS SAPOS: UM PATRIMÔNIO MUSICAL GOIANO

Abstract

This work realizes a morphological, critical, and stylistic musical analysis of the piece “Concerto dos Sapos”, from Antônio da Costa Nascimento, composer born in Pirenópolis in the nineteenth century. For all, analyses the first cultural expressions in the State of Goiás; the coming of the music and pioneer musicians to the town of Meia Ponte; the history behind Musical Bands of the town: three decisive factors for the creation of a rich musical collection in Pirenópolis. Among local artists, we selected the abovementioned composer Antônio da Costa Nascimento for the prominence of its work in the historical and cultural context of a Brazilian province in the nineteenth century, giving a special emphasis to the piece “Concerto dos Sapos”, a true gift to the Community of the State of Goiás that needs to be divulged and preserved.
