Abstract in Portuguese
Esta tese propõe uma investigação acerca da trajetória do compositor e violinista Manoel Joaquim de Macedo (1845--1925). Por meio de uma revisão da literatura, procura entender como surgiu o perfil biográfico do músico, perfil esse que acabou consagrado. Por outro lado, desconstrói esse perfil a partir de pesquisas recentes e dados inéditos, propondo uma nova leitura de sua biografia. Manoel Joaquim de Macedo é inserido em seu contexto social e político para melhor se entender como ele atuou como músico e quais eram suas ambições. Assim, são examinados o meio no qual ele se iniciou na música; a tradição da escola franco--belga de violino, na qual ele teria se formado; o meio musical carioca e mineiro do final do século XIX início do XX; e as questões político--ideológicas que envolveram a criação da ópera Tiradentes, seu grande projeto profissional da maturidade

Abstract in English
This work proposes an investigation about the composer and violinist Manoel Joaquim de Macedo (1845--1925). Through a literature review, it tries to understand how the consecrated biography of the musician was formed. On the other hand, it deconstructs this biography from recent research and unpublished data, proposing a new biographical approach. Manoel Joaquim de Macedo is inserted in its social and political context to better understand how he acted as musician and what were his ambitions. Thus, this work examines the medium in which he began in music; the Franco--Belgian violin school tradition, in which he would have formed; the musical ambient of Rio de Janeiro and Minas Gerais in the late nineteenth and early twentieth century; and the political and ideological issues surrounding the creation of the opera Tiradentes, his great professional project of the maturity.
