Resumo

O presente artigo mapeia o surgimento e desenvolvimento de uma cena musical Celta-Irlandesa no Brasil, uma comunidade pequena mas coesa de músicos brasileiros amadores e profissionais e seus respectivos grupos musicais que constitui um bom exemplo do que Mark Slobin denominou de ‘interculturas de afinidade’ (Slobin 1987). A partir de uma perspectiva etnomusicológica, busco fornecer um retrato de tal fenômeno social e musical baseado no seguinte tripé: 1) uma discussão da literatura internacional sobre a globalização da música tradicional irlandesa como música celta no período do ‘Tigre Celta’ (Williams 2010) e os impactos de tal processo no Brasil; 2) a apresentação e análise dos resultados de um questionário online conduzido na principal comunidade da cena na rede social Facebook como forma de caracterizá-la em termos sociodemográficos e musicais; 3) a descrição etnográfica da seção carioca de tal cena através de seu principal evento musical, a ‘session’ mensal conhecida como ‘Irish Session Rio’.
