摘要:This paper takes as its main topic the pagode movement, which appeared in the 1980s as a re-invention of the samba tradition. Deeply grounded in the most idiosyncratic musical patterns of samba, pagode countered the hegemony of the samba-schools and their media appeal. Pagode, too, became a major commercial success. It appeared in a transitional period, at the moment the music industry was shifting its focus toward lower classes of the population. As a result, pagode and other local-based styles led the way to a reconfiguration of Brazilian music. The transitional state of this moment is reflected in the ambivalent nature of pagode meanings. Those meanings were firmly attached to the local sphere, while at the same time open to communication with translocal levels.
