Abstract

This article aims to show how a musical narrative may help to identify the significative contents that refer to the values and feelings attached to tradition of regional social groups, constituting an information source. The starting point was the analysis of a gaucho folk song, of the by singer Gildo de Freitas, in which the narrator expresses his memories about the past, in order to reflect about the insertion of common sense as an important element in the process of production of knowledge. It is possible to perceive that the narratives are mediated by information of affectionate nature about social time and space, which offer support for the constitution of the culture and identity, as well as the immaginary of social groups. It concludes that the musical narrative, as an operation of memory, allows a tense and permanent dialog between past and present.
