Music History and Culture

This article analyzes the selection of 18 phonograms found on CD 1 of the publication “500 years of Brazilian popular music”, a book with two CDs published by the Museu da Imagem e do Som in Rio de Janeiro, 2001. Referenced in the historiography of sound, listening and music, the article proposes to think about professional listening in history and recording technique among different social groups. A research was carried out on the production dates of the 18 phonograms of CD 1 (1908-2001). The use of sound reproduction machines and artifacts, from mechanical recordings to the digital CD era, background the analysis of the selection pointing out some cultural choices to which the technique of recording and sound reproduction is submitted when the museum writes the history of popular music in Brazil at the turn of the 21st century.
