Abstract

Biographical survey, organization and critical review of the repertoire of songs by Benjamin Barreto da Silva Araújo (1902-1985), a pianist, conductor, arranger, teacher and Brazilian composer. He had an important role in both the classical and popular music scene in Brazil. He set to music several poems by authors connected to the modernist movement. His work remained unknown after his death. Bibliographical search, technical analysis and the relationship between music and text are used to highlight the artistic value of his songs and introduce them to the interpreters of Brazilian vocal chamber music.
