LEMOS JUNIOR, Wilson. The Orpheonic Singing in the Brazilian republican school and its European influences (1890 - 1931). Cad. Hist. Educ. [online]. 2020, vol.19, n.3, pp.1069-1079.  Epub Oct 26, 2020. ISSN 1982-7806.  https://doi.org/10.14393/che-v19n3-2020-24.

This article aims to discuss the teaching of Orpheonic Singing in Brazilian legislation between 1890 and 1931 and its relation to the teaching of Orpheonic Singing that emerged in Europe in the 18th century. School legislations such as the educational reforms of Benjamin Constant (1890) and Francisco Campos (1931) are used as sources, as well as articles published by educators like Veríssimo de Souza (1907; 1910) and Chasteau (1899). Researches of authors such as Contier (1998), Souza (2000), Jardim (2003; 2006; 2009), and Gilioli (2008) are also used. The article is divided into two parts. The first part investigates the relationship between Brazilian and European Orpheonic practices. The second investigates the characteristics of Orpheonic Singing. The influence of the Orpheonic Singing practiced in Europe became definitive for Brazilian culture.

Keywords : History of education; Music education; Artistic education.
