Pela primeira delas, foram interpretados os impasses encontrados pelo conjunto para possibilitar a gravação, a prensagem e a distribuição de seus três álbuns lançados entre 1979 e 1982, à luz das intensas transformações da indústria fonográfica brasileira desse período. Na busca por apoio para a viabilização de seus trabalhos, os integrantes do conjunto potencializaram a retórica de produção musical independente, que ganhava força nesse mesmo período. Mantiveram, também, intensas aproximações com o Centro de Promoções Artísticas Lira Paulistana, e uma relação nuançada com a construção da ideia de vanguarda paulista. A segunda perspectiva de análise recai sobre as proximidades e distanciamentos entre a música produzida pelo Grupo Um e a fricção de musicalidades presente no jazz brasileiro. Para tanto, foi realizado um panorama da evolução jazzística durante o século XX, situando o cenário da virada dos anos 1970 para os anos 1980 no Brasil e no mundo. Além disso, alguns aspectos da obra discográfica do conjunto foram assinalados no intuito de refletir e discorrer sobre os possíveis sentidos de sua utilização naquele momento, a partir dos elos com o estilo fusion de jazz. / This dissertacion intended to rebuild and to analyse the artistic trajectory of the ensemble Grupo Um (1976 - 1984) following two complementary perspectives. The first one has interpreted the standoffs founded by the group in order to make it viable the recording, pressing and selling, of its three albuns between 1979 and 1982, surrounded by the intense transformation of the brazilian phonographic industry at the time. At the searching for supporting to make it viable, they have potentialized the rhetorics of independent musical production, that was gaining force at the same period. They manteined, also, intense aproximations with the Centro de Promoções Artísticas Lira Paulistana and nuances with the construction of the very idea of the vanguarda paulista. The second perspective of analyses lies in the approximation and distancing of the music produced by Grupo Um and the friction of musicalities that were present in the brazilian jazz. Therefore, a panoram of the jazz evolution in the 20th century was made, situating the turning point scenario of the 1970's in Brazil and in the world. Besides that, some aspects of the ensemble discography are pointed out in the will to reflect and punctuate about its possible meanings of utilisation at that moment, regardening its ties with the jazz fusion style. / FAPESP: 2015/09829-3

There are certain recordings by important artists such as Lionel Hampton, Miles Davis, John Coltrane, Pedro Iturralde, Chick Corea, and Paco de Lucía, among others, that have been associated with the label flamenco jazz. This label is entering jazz discourse, and it needs to be better understood in order to clarify its history, its identity, and its impact on recent developments in flamenco that are labeled nuevo flamenco. There is a lack of agreement in the existent literature on flamenco jazz on the evaluation of these recordings and these artists' achievements and contributions to this field. These writings encompass authors from different backgrounds: journalists, critics, and musicologists, who have approached their analysis of the recordings from different perspectives. The differences in professional backgrounds, approaches, and purpose of the writings of these authors has resulted in controversy about this label. Therefore, the flamenco jazz scholarly conversation needs more objective writings from an analytical point of view. This historiographical study presents a more comprehensive evaluation of flamenco jazz by discussing selected recordings using analytical tools from jazz studies. These analytical arguments clarify the aesthetics of flamenco jazz and the artistic processes that these artists went through when combining musical elements from flamenco and jazz, which in some cases are described as creative misreading. In this century of cultural globalization, where jazz has become a diverse expression of world music because of its capacity to absorb traits from other musical practices, this study can be a resource for international jazz musicians who are seeking to combine jazz with their musical cultural heritage.
