The Indian Style of Villa-Lobos (Part Two): rhythmic and textural aspects, signifying potential and Indian topics

Second part of the article resulting from my Master's Thesis, which deals with the musical representation of Brazilian Indians in Villa-Lobos's music. In this second part, I continue to defend the existence of a coherent and self-referential Indian Style on Villa-Lobos music, and I observe the signifying potential of rhythmic and textural aspects of this style based on a hermeneutic approach. Finally, some models of Indian topics on Villa-Lobos are presented.

indian style in Villa-Lobos; musical analysis and meaning; modernism and primitivism in music
