RESUMO

The Canciones Catalanas for the guitar by Miguel Llobet belong to the Catalan folklore music area, whose tradition is millennial. However we search in the history of music and Catalan etnomusicology the information about the origin of such melodies used in the works of the Catalan composer. When we enter this universe, we find the texts which are inserted in the melodies that help recognise the meaning of them and establish new elements of interpretation for the collection of Catalan traditional songs for the guitar. We have consulted the Catalan traditional Cancioneros and we have found the melodies in their primitive forms with their texts in the Catalan language transcribed and translated into the Portuguese language. The research about Canciones Catalanas emphasizes the statement that they are a mark in the literature of the guitar from the twenthieth century. The technical and expressive procedures used in these transcriptions contributed towards the entrance of the instrument into a new idiomatic phase and influenced other composers to write for the guitar. To analyse the function of the traditional melodies in the beginning of the nineteenth century, propitiates the possibility to trace Llobet´s manifold artistic personality, whose final biography has not been published yet. The results helped to give him a position as an extremely important figure for the history of the guitar. However, his production was stifled by several tragedies brought about by the Spanish Civil War and some of the works fell into oblivion. The progressive recognition of the legacy left by Llobet´s activities has been gradually promoting a research and thus rescuing his works. However, the present dissertation intends to give a contribution to this process so as to complete an essential chapter in the history of the guitar.
