Descrição
Resumo:This research aimed to investigate the perspective of military musicians from the Music Band of the Natal Air Base (BANT) regarding their training and performance trajectories. The study sought to understand the contexts in which these musicians have performed within and outside the military environment, the motivations that led them to pursue a military career, as well as their professional perspectives. The methodology used consisted of a qualitative approach, employing questionnaires as a qualitative data collection instrument. Seventeen members of Band were included in the study. The obtained results revealed diverse motivations that led musicians to join the military, including aspects such as the opportunity to work with music, financial stability, employment prospects, family influence, and the desire to serve their country. These motivations reflect the different aspirations and individual goals of the musicians, combining their interest in musical activities with the benefits offered by a military career. A significant variety of musical experiences outside the military environment were identified among the military musicians, including performances in symphony orchestras, chamber groups, churches, bands of various musical styles, social events, and special appearances. These experiences highlight the versatility and musical ability of the participants, demonstrating their capacity to perform in different contexts and with diverse genres and musical expressions. Regarding the length of military service, it was observed that the majority of participants had a long-standing trajectory, with most of them serving for more than 10 years in the military career. This demonstrates significant experience on the part of these musicians in serving the Armed Forces and contributing to the Band. With regard to gender representation, a male predominance was found in Band, with only one female musician in the participating group of the research. This predominance aligns with the generally male composition of the Armed Forces but also indicates the need to expand opportunities for women in bands. This research can contribute to the understanding of the training and performance trajectories of military musicians, highlighting the diversity of experiences and motivations that characterize their careers. Furthermore, it can pave the way for future studies exploring the relationship between musical training and performance, militarism, and society.
