Práticas musicais nos espaços religiosos: o protestantismo histórico em Campina Grande.

Abstract

Until the middle of 80's years, churches linked to historic protestantism in the city of Campina Grande (presbyterian, congregational, baptist and methodist), allowed in their services only hymns or songs that had the same sound's landscape. During this period of time, instrumental worship groups, using guitar, bass, keyboard and drums, gradually began to take part of those "worship moments" with songs that became popularly known as corinhos. Based on this evidence we release the following problem: why the introduction of this new music format has caused so much anxiety in the participants of such ecclesiastical communities, especially by the older audience? We divided the search into three chapters, where we look at the first place the "traditional gospel music" and "contemporary gospel music", in second place the lyrics of some songs and in third place an evangelical event called "Cantinho da Paz" and the relationship of faithful people with the media. We discussed the theme from the concept of art to make of CERTEAU (2003), the concept of inheritance of RICOEUR (1997) and the concept of autonomy of CASTORIADIS (2007). By the scarcity of specific literature, the oral history was a methodological resource for studying the local history.
