I28-R145-13517_oai2025-11-17 Waisman, Leonardo J. 2005-09-01 In attempting to emphasize the value of indigenous agency in the musical practice of the Jesuit missons writers have posited the existance of "native composers" during the Jesuits' regime. Focusing on the misson area of Mojos, this article aims to demostrate that: 1) Indian compositional activity during the Jesuit period lacked importance and originality; 2) inmediately after the Jesuits' expulsion presumably some Indian composers emerge, writing in a characteristic style that differs from the European. This may have been a consequence of the new relationship established between musicians and the white society and the efficient spirit of some government officials; 3) during the Jesuit period, musical performance was the arena where Indians made an active and idiosyncratic contribution. En el intento de valorizar la acción indígena en la práctica musical de las reducciones, se ha hablado de "compositores indígenas" durante el régimen jesuítico. Centrándose en el área misional de Mojos, el presente estudio intenta establecer: 1) que la actividad compositiva indígena durante la administración jesuítica, si la hubo, careció de originalidad e importancia; 2) que inmediatamente después de la expulsión, como consecuencia de las nuevas relaciones establecidas por los músicos y del espíritu eficientista de algunos oficiales del gobierno, aparecen compositores presumiblemente indígenas que escriben en un estilo definido y diferente del europeo; 3) que durante la época jesuítica la práctica de la interpretación era el terreno donde los indígenas aportaban una contribución activa e idiosincrática. Na tentativa de valorizar a atividade indígena na prática musical das reduções, falou-se em "compositores indígenas" durante o regime jesuíta. Com foco na área missionária de Mojos, este estudo busca estabelecer: 1) que a atividade composicional indígena durante a administração jesuíta, se existiu, carecia de originalidade e importância; 2) que imediatamente após a expulsão, como consequência das novas relações estabelecidas pelos músicos e do espírito de eficiência de alguns funcionários do governo, presumivelmente surgiram compositores indígenas, escrevendo em um estilo definido e distinto do europeu; 3) que, durante a era jesuíta, a performance era o palco onde os povos indígenas davam uma contribuição ativa e idiossincrática. application/pdf https://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/MA/article/view/13517 10.34096/mace.v12i0.13517 spa Sección Etnohistoria, Instituto de Ciencias Antropológicas.

In attempting to emphasize the value of indigenous agency in the musical practice of the Jesuit missons writers have posited the existance of "native composers" during the Jesuits' regime. Focusing on the misson area of Mojos, this article aims to demostrate that: 1) Indian compositional activity during the Jesuit period lacked importance and originality; 2) inmediately after the Jesuits' expulsion presumably some Indian composers emerge, writing in a characteristic style that differs from the European. This may have been a consequence of the new relationship established between musicians and the white society and the efficient spirit of some government officials; 3) during the Jesuit period, musical performance was the arena where Indians made an active and idiosyncratic contribution. |
