Abstract

The paper analyzes the role of Popular Brazilian Music (MPB) in protest events in the final period of the Military Regime from 1977 to 1984. At that time, the MPB was present at concerts, rallies, TV, radio and sound trucks, cradling public demonstrations against the regime and electoral campaigns by students , opposition parties, in which stood out the MDB later PMDB, PT and PDT, labor movements, neighborhood movements , by Anistia and the Diretas Já. You can see that many artists like Elis Regina, Chico Buarque, Caetano Veloso, Gonzaguinha, Gilberto Gil, among other already established cast of MPB, attended these events. Our goal is to understand the performances of these artists as political agents, their possible links with the opposition parties and the role of songs in reframing of political values and building a sense of collective belonging in opposition to the Military Regime.
