SUMMARY:

Integrating the research line processes and dimensions of artistic production in percussion, this

dissertation presents the creation, interpretation, and analysis of an instrumental frevo, based

on the concept of multimodality and the feminine perspective of this researcher. As its main

objective, an instrumental frevo titled Passoando na Pracinha: Frevo for Percussion and Dance

in Three Movements—1. Ferrolho, 2. Levada, and 3. Tramela—was created, inspired by the

idea of multimodality. The work navigates between tradition and modernity, exploring a path

of creative freedom for modern composition while honoring the compositional tradition of

instrumental frevo. As specific objectives, the study involved performances of the piece in

various academic/artistic settings, audiovisual recordings of the performances, reflections on

the different interpretations presented in each performance, and documentation of the results

and conclusions derived from the analyses. The methodology applied to achieve these

objectives included the following steps: a literature review to gain a broader and more specific

understanding of the research topic; documentary research; audiovisual recordings of the

experiments and performances of the piece; analysis of the performances based on the

recordings; comparison of the performances; analysis of all collected materials; and

documentation of the results and conclusions. The research incorporated various elements, such

as exploring different instrumental formations for performance and integrating dance as part of

the composition. The researcher also reflects on her experiences as a woman in the realm of

instrumental frevo, composing, playing, conducting, teaching, and dancing.
