PROJETO MÚSICA NA ESQUINA:

identidade e cultura do bairro da Cabanagem, na periferia de Belém/PA.

Abstract

This article seeks to understand the impact of the Música na Esquina project on the sociability processes (Castro, 2024) promoted by music in the peripheral neighborhood of Cabanagem, in Belém. The methodology used was participant observation and bibliographic research, based on a case study based on stories from a former musician and a music student at the beginning of his career, about the impact of music on their lives. The work demonstrates how a cultural initiative can help break down negative stereotypes associated with the periphery and produce other interpretations of life in the periphery.
