Habitus and musical field, trajectories, legitimationAbstract
This article discusses the trajectory of three musicians who play in the night of Fortaleza, namely Robston Medeiros, Flávio Rangel and Gilmar Nunes, from their formation processes, since the social background of each to the consolidation of their careers in the city over the decades of 1990, 2000 and 2010. From the notions of field, symbolic capital, cultural capital and habitus of Pierre Bourdieu, we analyze how these musicians have integrated the existing musical environment in the city's bars located in neighborhoods frequented by the middle class, how they interacted with the public and with the owners of establishments and what were their positions on the working conditions encountered. We analyze also how this interaction explained the existing hierarchical relationship between professionals and entrepreneurs. We approach their strategies to deal with this environment found and how they acted to ensure its legitimacy as professionals and for obtain recognition of their place as musicians. For this purpose, we consider aspects such as music capital and ability to interact with the public.
