The Origins of Syncopation in Brazilian Music

Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: The present work aims to expose different stages in the development of an unpublished study on syncopation in Brazilian music conducted by Mário de Andrade, a central figure of modernism in Brazil.Initially understood as a rhythmic figure present in various musical practices of the Americas, the concept of syncopation ultimately reveals itself as an interesting analytical tool that is both musical and cultural in a complex context of colonization.
