People express their national identity not only through hot nationalist sentiments, but also in their daily conversations and practices. The theory of banal nationalism highlights the everyday routines and discourses through which mundane national sentiments are produced. In China, a number of young people are engaged in the creation of Ancient Chinese-style songs which, incidentally, reveal understanding of their national identity. Ancient Chinese-style songs (Gufeng 古风 in Chinese), a variety of digital songs that are created by young netizens online with special emphasis on traditional Chinese elements, provides data through which young people's interpretation and performance of national identity in their daily lives can be examined. Drawing on the theory of banal nationalism, this research analyzes the participants' construction of their national identity in music creating and listening activities. The research uses the qualitative method of web content analysis in order to understand the song lyrics and listeners' comments on the songs. The analysis presented here reveals various aspects of the participants' sense of banal nationhood. Findings show that the participants in Ancient Chinese-style songs not only provide multiple interpretations of national culture and history, but also engage in embodied performance of the nation through music creating and listening activities. In the process, the young people link their daily experience of online entertainment with national culture, and attach new meanings to the cultural elements they draw on. It is argued here that the young people exercise agency in their interpretation of the nation. Moreover, the diverse expressions of banal national sentiment created by the participants in this music style suggests that cultural traditions are not only the stereotyped concepts identified in hot nationalism studies, but that they also include everyday experiences that the young music lovers identify with. Key words: banal nationalism, national identity, Chinese youth, online music

Este trabalho versa sobre o catálogo de obras de Luciano Gallet e o lugar que ocupou na história de vida daquele compositor. Partindo da reunião de informações de partituras editadas e manuscritas, de pesquisas em periódicos da época, de programas de concerto, de literatura musicológica pertinente e ainda valendo-nos de sua correspondência pessoal com Mário de Andrade, buscamos recompor a sua trajetória artística e profissional em meio ao contexto sócio, político e cultural em que esteve inserida, com especial atenção ao estabelecimento de seu conjunto de obras. Através do mapeamento de um diálogo de sua produção musical com seus demais investimentos intelectuais, discutimos em que medida a criação musical de Luciano Gallet acompanhou ou transpareceu os ideais de arte e educação que nortearam sua vida, bem como propomos uma contribuição para a compreensão da transição pela qual passou sua obra, qual seja a de uma estética gálica de suas primeiras composições até sua inserção e contribuição para a cristalização do movimento nacionalista modernista brasileiro em música. / This doctoral thesis deals with the catalog of works by Luciano Gallet and the place it occupied in his life history. Starting from the collection of information from edited and handwritten music scores, research in periodicals of the time, concert programs and pertinent musicological literature, as well as availing ourselves of his personal correspondence with Mário de Andrade, we sought to trace his artistic and professional trajectory within the social, political and cultural context of the time, paying special attention to the formation of his set of works. Through the mapping of a dialogue between his musical production and his other intellectual investments, we discuss the extent to which Luciano Gallet\' musical creation accompanies or reflect the ideals of art and education that guided his life, and propose a contribution to the understanding of the transition through which his work passed such a from a Gallic aesthetic until its insertion and contribution to the crystallization of the Brazilian nationalist modernist movement in music.
