RESUMO

The theoretical knowledge of Father José Maurício Nunes Garcia, the greatest reference of Brazilian Colonial Period, is still underestimated, in spite of the amount of his production. The edited works available to analysis are scarce, contributing to this view. The aim of this research is the study of the most relevant elements of writing in six vocal works of de capella type of the composer. Each of these six works are intended to SATB chorus with figured bass to the organ, are dated and subsist as original manuscript or copy from the period. They were edited from the Biblioteca Nacional s microfilms and submitted to harmonic and formal analysis, to constitute a compositional outlook. Composed from 1797 to 1809, these pieces mark important stages in composer s life and musical production considering that in 1798 he was registered as Mestre de Capela of Catedral da Sé and in 1808 arrived the Portuguese Court to Brazil. The resources employed by Father José Maurício in these few works, reveal a divergent picture of the simplistic evidence about the reality: a skilled composer, dominating the medium to which he produced and looked for improve himself throughout his frequent compositional task
