Resumo: This text discusses popular music as a vector of the transformation of sensibilities throughout the 1960s. It argues that the aesthetic, thematic, and behavioral renewal observed there questioned the Brazilian political culture of strong authoritarian nature. It uses audiovisual records from festivals, documentaries that explore the culture of that decade, and books that address the trajectories of artists who faced and suffered the pressures of the dictatorial system. Amid glamor and protest, many young singers, songwriters, and performers shook the established forms of musical art in Brazil, whether because of the vigor of their lyrics, the boldness of their compositions, or the force of their transgressive behavior, which would enable the critique of the national political culture.
