| Abstract | |
The present research is about the importance of Mário de Andrade\'s thoughts concerning the study of poetical-melodic relations. We worked on the hypothesis of the so called \"melodic turns\": The combination of trends or features that give to a certain music its distinguishing character. The \"torneios melódicos\" make it possible to analyse a composition objectively, observing its origin, it influences and its creative process. Nevertheless, this kind of analysis is nevertheless not dissociable from a poetical dimension. Mário de Andrade was himself a musician, who expressed himself through poetry. In his technical studies and articles he is always stressed the insolubility of a melodical-poetical unity. This research was based on an unpublished manuscript from the author divided in three parts named: Melodics, Rhythmics and Poetics. The document can be found at the Arquivo do Instituto de Estudos Brasileiros - USP (University of São Paulo) and it is extremely fragmentary and complex, as it is formed by numerous notes made by the author throughout his life.
