Resumo: | In the course of his career as a pianist, composer and pedagogue, Eurico Thomaz de Lima (1908–1989) crossed the Atlantic to Brazil twice – in 1949 and 1952 – promoting works by leading figures in early 20th-century Portuguese classical music and establishing professional and personal relationships with prominent names in the Brazilian music scene, such as Villa-Lobos, Waldemar Henrique, Camargo Guarnieri, Barrozo Netto, Najla Jabôr, and Carmen Vasconcelos. These trips and contacts had an impact on Thomaz de Lima’s piano output, but also on the process of spreading Brazilian classical music in Portugal, both through concerts with works by these composers and through his activities as a teacher. Testimonies of this cultural interchange can be identified in scores given to the pianist-composer, or which he himself acquired in Brazil, in his exchanges of letters, through the musician’s own photographic records, in concert programmes and various news items published in Brazilian and Portuguese periodicals. An analysis of sources related to his first tour (1949), based particularly on the Eurico Thomaz de Lima archive held by the Department of Music of the University of Minho, enables us to reconstitute these processes of interchange, their impact, the social networks that he established and the reasons that motivated the second tour, as well as offering new biographical information about this Portuguese musician. |

Essas viagens e contatos terão impactos na obra pianística de Thomaz de Lima, mas também no processo de difusão da música clássica brasileira em Portugal, seja através de concertos com obras desses compositores ou através de suas atividades como professor. Testemunhos desse intercâmbio cultural podem ser identificados em partituras oferecidas ao músico português, ou adquiridas pelo próprio, no Brasil, na sua relação epistolar, através de registos fotográficos feitos pelo próprio, nos programas de concertos e em diversas notícias publicadas nos periódicos brasileiros e portugueses. A análise das fontes relacionadas com a sua primeira digressão (1949), com destaque para as que integram o espólio de Eurico Thomaz de Lima, espólio custodiado no Departamento de Música da Universidade do Minho, permitirá reconstituir os processos de intercâmbio supracitados, os seus impactos, as redes de sociabilidades estabelecidas, as razões que permitiram a sua segunda digressão, para além de oferecer novos contributos biográficos sobre o músico português.CEHUM2023-10-24info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfhttps://doi.org/10.21814/diacritica.4768https://doi.org/10.21814/diacritica.4768Diacrítica; Vol. 37 N.º 1 (2023); 84-110Diacrítica; Vol. 37 No. 1 (2023); 84-1102183-91740870-896710.21814/diacritica.37.1reponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAPporhttps://revistas.uminho.pt/index.php/diacritica/article/view/4768https://revistas.uminho.pt/index.php/diacritica/article/view/4768/5948Direitos de Autor (c) 2023 Rodrigo Teodoro de Paulainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessPaula, Rodrigo Teodoro de2023-11-10T07:45:21Zoai:journals.uminho.pt:article/4768Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-19T20:39:47.007771Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse |
