SUMMARY:

This thesis intends to define, explain and question a compositional model which showed itself in a pronounced way for the first time in Brazil in 1980 with the release of the Album "Clara Crocodilo" by Arrigo Barnabé, which combines the rhythmic and interpretive vitality of Popular Music with the compositional processes of some of the segments of Contemporary Classical Music. Such a model, belonging to the border area between Popular Music and
Contemporary Classical Music, is distinguished from most of the works that inhabit the same area, due to the mark of rigor in the definition of heights and durations by the composer. For this study it will be necessary to understand the formation of its sound from the interrelation between the peculiarities of this music. In the absence of any label we will name it Expanded Popular Music (MPE). After researching Brazilian works and composers that fit this profile,
we intend to discuss the how and why of their appearance, taking into account sociological, philosophical and market aspects. Then we will assess whether the model involves enough elements from Popular Music to the point of not being conceptualized as Classical Music. Then we will observe the details of some works with this specific sound, revealing in detail the characteristics that make them in line with our model under study. Finally, I will present a composition of my own – with an analytical/descriptive memorial – created during the preparation of this thesis, with compositional processes that lead to the typical sound of MPE.
