BRAMBILA, Christianny Maria GARCIA, Agnaldo. Vinicius de Moraes, partners and friends: relationships between friendship and music. Gerais, Rev. Interinst. Psicol. []. 2009, 2, 2, pp.67-80. ISSN 1983-8220.
This study investigated the relationship between music and musical partnership in the work of Vinicius de Moraes, based on the dialectical perspective of Robert Hinde on interpersonal relationships and the model proposed by Adams and Bliezsner regarding friendships among adults. The material for analysis were the lyrics of songs in partnership composed with Tom Jobim, Carlos Lyra, Baden Powell and Toquinho. These compositions were subject to analysis of content and the songs were compared for their content. The results indicated different themes in these songs, especially as (a) romantic love, (b) woman, and (c) values and lifestyles. The paper discusses the relationship between friendship and music, the contribution of the concept of cultural friendships and the relationship between friendships, cultural movements and culture.
