Northeastern improvisers. Performance. Tradition. Belonging to a community.Abstract
Brasilia is a city whose populationis formed by migrants. In its urban dynamics we
observe groups, who revive and recreate culture ma-
nifestations, which are characteristic of their places
of origin. This essay analyses one of these groups,
cantadores nordestinos (Northeastern improvisers),
and one event, Cantoria de Pé de Parede. While we
describe the scenery where performance takes pla-
ce, the particular poetic forms which are used, the
importance of the idea of the fellow countryman
and commensality, we also try to show some ways
in which these popular poets build images of tradi-
tion, of poetic improvisation (cantoria), of Northe-
astern Region and of Brasilia.
