Resumo
This research focuses on documenting historical facts related to Mestre Gamela's trajectory
and proposing reflections about his musical conception and guitar teaching method. Sidney
Barros (1943-2013), known as Mestre Gamela, was one of the most important guitarists in
the Brazilian scene (1971-2013). His performance influenced a generation of musicians and
helped to train several renowned instrumentalists in Brazil and abroad, among them: Lula
Galvao, Nelson Faria, Genil Castro, Rosa Passos, Reco do Bandolim, Hamilton de Holanda,
Gabriel Grossi, Tom Capone, Daniel Santiago, Zélia Duncan, Cassia Eller, Herbert Viana.
Given the peculiarities of his teaching method and the size of his influence, it is considered
that the work developed by Mestre Gamela is configured as a guitar school. This research
aims to promote the visibility of this important Brazilian guitarist and provide significant
empirical data for research on guitar studies and popular music. From information collected
in interviews and various sources, this study presents a contextualized narrative of important
events related to the musician's education, his professional experiences and his pedagogical
performance in Brasilia. Based on an interdisciplinary approach involving assumptions of
Phenomenology, Cultural History, Musicology and Musical Analysis, several aspects of
Mestre Gamela's performance were investigated. The following procedures were performed:
mapping of the material produced by the musician (publications and manuscripts);
verification of the characteristics of his conception of music and its teaching; research on
what Gamela was doing its activities for; analysis of part of their arrangements. By
articulating information about Gamela's trajectory and performance, it was possible to unveil
various obscurities about the process of development of her teaching method and to outline a
set of practices and technical and stylistic elements that make up her School of popular
guitar.
