Pouco depois do movimento de “30 de maio”, também conhecido por “Rusga”, um novo grupo passou a dominar a cena política na província. Esse grupo formou o Partido Liberal da região e se tornou hegemônico a despeito da resistência dos presidentes de província e de políticos ligados às antigas lideranças da capital. O novo líder que surgia era fazendeiro do interior, que conseguiu se articular eficazmente com outros senhores de vilas e povoados pequenos, retirando, assim, a supremacia de políticos de Cuiabá. Pela sua força, esse partido desafiava constantemente os poderes constituídos. O governo central não os enfrentava frontalmente. Pelo contrário. Muitas vezes cedia aos seguidores de Ribeiro. O receio de uma forte rebelião na província fronteir iça fazia com que o governo fosse bastante cauteloso em relação aos líderes locais. Esse grupo somente perdeu sua posição vantajosa em 1849, quando um presidente, juntamente com outros desafetos do Partido Liberal, conseguiram desenvolver estratégias para enfraquecer os liberais e finalmente derrotá-los, notadamente nas urnas. Mas a década que começava a seguir, 1850, não iria ser marcada pelo revanchismo e rivalidade sistemática. Ou seja, começou a haver um entendimento entre as principais lideranças políticas, culminando na política de “Conciliação”, que se operava na Corte e era exemplarmente promovida em Mato Grosso sob a batuta de Augusto Leverger. Quando fracassa na Corte a “Conciliação”, na província fronteiriça também os partidos passam a se antagonizar, como não podia deixar de ser. No entanto, não era mais latente o perigo de um grupo político promover a “desordem”, colocando em perigo a integridade imperial, como acontecia nas décadas de 1830 e 1840. Acontecia que depois da “Conciliação” os espaços políticos estavam definidos, haveria espaço inclusive para quem perdesse eleições, apesar das rivalidades partidárias. A “desordem” agora poderia ser causada principalmente pela gente miúda, não mais pelos senhores da política, que ajudavam a construir a civilização onde existia sertão. Dessa maneira, na segunda metade do século XIX, o discurso da civilização foi realçado na província, assim como várias práticas consideradas civilizadoras se fizeram mais presentes. O governo central precisava das elites locais para governar, mas necessitava também transformar e integrar toda uma população que deveria ser parte da nação que se construía. _______________________________________________________________________________ ABSTRACT / This research investigates the practices and political ideas in Mato Grosso among the Rusga (1834) and the end of the Paraguay War (1870). After the movement of “May 30”, also known by "Rusga", a new group started to dominate the political scene in the province. That group formed Liberal Party of the area and it turned dominant in despite of the province presidents' resistance and of politicians linked to the old leaderships of the capital. The new leader that appeared was farmer of the inland, got articulates efficiently with other gentlemen of small towns, removing the politicians' of Cuiabá supremacy. For its force, that party constantly challenged the constituted powers. The central government didn't face them sharply. On the contrary, a lot of times it gave up benefits to Ribeiro's followers. The fear of a strong rebellion in the frontier province forced the government to be quite cautious in relation to the local leaders. That group only lost its advantageous position in 1849, when a president, together with other disaffections of Liberal Party, they got to develop strategies to weaken the liberal ones and finally to defeat them, besides in the urns. But the decade that began to proceed, 1850, it would not be marked by the retaliation and systematic rivalry. It began there to be an understanding among the main political leaderships, culminating in the politics of "Conciliation", that it was operated in the Court and it was promoted in Mato Grosso under Augusto Leverger's baton, like a pattern. When the politics of "Conciliation" fails in the Court, in the frontier province the parties also pass antagonizing. However, it was not more latent the danger of a political group to promote the "disorder", putting in danger the imperial integrity, as it happened in the decades of 1830 and 1840. It happened that after the "Conciliation" the political spaces were defined, there would be space besides for who lost elections, in spite of the supporting rivalries. The "disorder" now could be caused mainly by small people, no more for party men, that helped to build the civilization where was “sertão” (backlands). Of that it sorts things out, in the second half of the century XIX, the speech of the civilization was enhanced in the province, as well as several practices considered civilizer they were done more presents. The central government needed the local elites to govern, but it also needed to transform and to integrate an entire population that should be part of the nation that was built.

As observações e coletas foram feitas entre o Km 9 e o Km 130 da Rodovia transpantaneira, nos anos de 1979 a 1983, em meses diversos (cobrindo épocas de seca e cheia), em lagoas, rios e corixos situados ao longo dessa rodovia. Astronotus ocellatus vive em pequenos grupos de 3 a 9 indivíduos, de dimensões semelhantes entre si. Alimenta-se, essencialmente, de pequenos peixes Characidae. Possui modo sorrateiro para se aproximar destas presas, seu padrão de cor críptico na vegetação aquática submersa, podendo facilitar esta aproximação. Uma vez na proximidade, arremete contra uma das presas, abocando-a. Além de Characidae, indivíduos pequenos de Loricariidae foram também encontrados no estômago de A. ocellatus, junto a outros itens alimentares (moluscos, crustáceos, escamas). Cichlasoma festim forma agrupamento de 7 a 30 indivíduos, que podem ser de dimensões diferentes entre si. Ingere basicamente algas epífitas de ramos de vegetação aquática, emergente ou submersa. Para aquisição do alimento, com o premaxilar protraído, aboca porções de algas nos ramos, podendo também cortar e ingerir porções de Cyperaceae, enquanto raspa algas na superfície das folhas...

Observations and collections were effected in ponds, rivers and temporary (flood) creeks along the Transpantaneira Highway, between Km 9 and Km 130, in different months (during both dry and flood seasons) from 1979 to 1983. Astronotus ocellatus lives in small groups of 3 to 9 similar-sized individuals. It feeds mostly on small characid fish. Prey are approached stealthily, which is facilitated by this predator¿s cryptic color pattern among the submerged vegetation. Once near the prey, it thrusts itself upon a fish and catches it in the mouth. Besides characids, small loricariids were also found in the gut of A. ocellatus, together with other food items (mollusks, crustaceans, fish¿scales), Cichlasoma festivum forms groups of 7 to 30 individuals which may be of different sizes. It feeds mostly on epiphytic algae attached to emerging or submerged vegetation. To obtain food, it either graspes them of the surface of Cyperaceae leaves, portions of which may also be cut and ingested. Besides filamentous algae, other food items of less importance (scales, insects, microcrustacea) were also noted in the gut content of C. festivum, Geophagus jurupari lives in small groups of 2 to rarely more than 5 individuals...

This thesis presents the author's musical compositions through the elucidation of their source impulse. In order to facilitate the unveiling of the works presented in this thesis I have subdivided it into sections thus: Section 1 - Here I introduce the reader to the motivation behind my music composition work and discuss the elements which inform my cosmology through the elucidation of the concepts and methods used in the realisation of the compositions. Section 2 - An introduction, discussion and conclusion to the series heading of Raza. The compositions and chapters are as follows: Chapter 3, Lucero for charango and tape; Chapter 4, Gato's Raid for marimba and tape; Chapter 6, De Luna a Luna ... for two percussionists and tape. In this section I address that particular musical imagery which is directly related to my cultural roots. Section 3 - An introduction, discussion and conclusion to the series heading of Urbis. The compositions and chapters are as follows: Chapter 9, Urbis #2 'passing moments/riffs & raffs' for bass clarinet and tape; Chapter 10, Urbis #3 'Alter ego' for electric guitar, live electronics and tape; Chapter 11, Urbis #4 for tape. In this section I address the use of modern urban culture symbols in order to create a contemporary mythological canon. Section 4 - A conclusion to this thesis.

Previous research has explored children’s musical participation in relation to motivation, instrumental lessons, extracurricular activities and the historically low uptake of GCSE and A Level music. This ethnographic study set out to investigate pupils’ musical participation in different school settings, the musical culture within these schools and the place of music in children’s everyday lives, including the wider contexts of home and school. Observations, questionnaires, aural and photo elicitation and focus group interviews were conducted with pupils, parents and teachers and revealed more differences than similarities in four main areas. The results are explored through the themes of teaching and learning, attitudes towards music, continuation of music education and the ‘triad’ of home, school and child. Schools attracting pupils from more middle-class backgrounds had more established musical cultures compared to those with an intake from economically deprived areas. This was apparent through the resources available to the music departments, the range of instrumental lessons on offer, the number of pupils learning an instrument, the amount of extracurricular provision present and the attitudes of pupils, parents and teachers. The findings from this study also showed that the views children experienced at home, whether positive or negative, were strongly influential. The results of this study showed the imbalance in provision between school type and socio-economic background and the importance of positive school-parent relationships in pupil engagement and have wider implications for schools and their pupils.

Though the castrato has been absent from the operatic stage since the nineteenth century, this voice is often described as the mysterious link in understanding the vocal techniques attributed to bel canto. The mystery lies in the fact that the voice of the operatic castrato cannot be heard by modern ears; and yet its legacy can be seen in the vocal tuition of several successful opera singers at the turn of the nineteenth century. What is unusual about this period is that some of the most successful singers of the day, including Nancy Storace, John Braham and Elizabeth Billington were British and shared the same vocal teacher. The castrato Venanzio Rauzzini (1746-1810) began his career as a primo uomo on the continent and while he established himself in various areas of musical activity, his main contribution and legacy was as a vocal teacher. During his residency in Britain from 1774 until his death, he trained several leading British professional singers who were the stars of opera in London and on the continent. They each demonstrated a use of techniques associated with the castrato vocal aesthetic and popularised a new vocal style, which can be traced to Rauzzini. Through this thesis, I will draw attention to the importance of Rauzzini’s impact on vocal teaching practice in Britain and his wider influence on the development of vocal style. I will demonstrate that Rauzzini should be considered part of the vocal teaching canon to which Pier Francesco Tosi (c.1653-1732), Nicola Porpora (1686-1768) and Manual García II (1805-1906), three other foreign vocal teachers, who were resident in Britain, already belong. By examining exactly what the expected vocal aesthetics were for all singers, castrato, non-castrated male and female during the period in which Rauzzini was active, I will demystify the castrato technique and provide a more tangible understanding of what this encompassed, demonstrating that many of these techniques were learned, performed and popularised by other voice types such as the female soprano and the male tenor.

All history of the flute in Scotland begins with William Tytler’s 1792 assertion that the flute was unknown in Scotland prior to 1725. Other generally accepted beliefs about the flute in Scotland are that it was only played by wealthy male amateurs and had no role in traditional music. Upon examination, all of these beliefs are false. This thesis explores the role of the flute in eighteenth-century Scottish musical life, including players, repertoire, manuscripts, and instruments. Evidence for ladies having played flute is also examined, as are possible connections between flute playing and bagpipe playing. What emerges is a more complete picture of the flute’s role in eighteenth-century Scottish musical life.
