A poética cantada:
investigação das habilidades do repentista nordestino
Abstract
O repente ou cantoria é uma arte poético-musical comum no Nordeste do Brasil e caracteriza-se pela improvisação de estrofes, ou seja, pela sua composição no momento da apresentação. Cantando sempre em duplas, ao improvisar versos os repentistas dialogam um com o outro e com os ouvintes. E colocam-se em relação com modelos estéticos incorporados, como as regras poéticas, os padrões melódicos e harmônicos, os moldes rítmicos da poesia, as temáticas usuais etc., a partir dos quais devem criar textos originais. No improviso, o cantador guia-se por esses modelos estéticos, dentre os quais ressalto como o principal fundamento prático do repente o ritmo poético incorporado por esses poetas.
