A influência da banda de música Moacir Pinto de Oliveira no cotidiano de seus integrantes

Abstract

Historically, music is associated with cultural expression around the world. One of the instruments widely used in towns in the countryside of Ceará is the music band. Thus, this study was conducted with members of the Moacir Pinto de Oliveira Music Band, located in the municipality of Pires Ferreira, Ceará. The main objective is to identify how participation in the music band influences the daily lives of its members. To achieve this, in-depth interviews were conducted with members of the studied music band. These semi-structured interviews were analyzed based on four categories: "consumer motivations," "the band's impact on daily life," "tactics and anti-discipline," and "affinity and collaboration." The main findings show that participation in the Moacir Pinto de Oliveira Band contributed to socio-emotional development, strengthening community bonds and skills such as teamwork, resilience, and communication. Members highlighted technical and behavioral lessons learned that were applied to other areas of life. Their continued participation in the group was motivated by a sense of belonging, recognition, and the emotional benefits provided by music.
