Abstract

Historical and analytical aspects about A Sertaneja (The Countryside Lady) for solo piano by Brazilian composer Brasilio Itibere. In this work published in 1869, one is to find one of the first quotations of the Brazilian folklore in concert music, excerpted from Balaio, meu bem, balaio (The basket, my dear, the basket) within the European instrumental virtuosity and sound conception reminiscent of pianists-composers such as Liszt and Frederic Chopin. A more sophisticated, structured and unified compositional style of Brasilio Itibere is revealed, who is still remembered in the musicological circles as an amateur composer of light music. Keywords: Brasilio Itibere; A Sertaneja; Brazilian music nationalism; Liszt pianism; Chopin pianism; Romantic piano.
