Description:The researcher (BF) was asked to continue the recording of the traditional tolo and jamugikumalu songs by one of the few remaining specialist, Moká, a woman "master of the songs". BF was choosed by her to be the heir of these songs. The recording was done inside the Mokaá's house and it is a typical teaching-learning session, characterized by an individual non-public performance directed to an apprentice. Local: Kuikuro village at Ipatse, Upper Xingu.
Documentation, description and analysis of the Kuikuro language (Carib). Phonetics and phonology; morphology; syntax. Comparison with the other Upper Xingu Carib variants (Kalapalo/Nahukwá/Matipu). Comparison with other Carib languages: the place of the Upper Xingu Carib inside the Carib family, as member of the southern branch. Social/political identity and linguistic identity in a multilingual society (the Upper Xingu). Ethnography of oral traditions: narrative, oratory, cerimonial discourse, curing formulas, chanted speech, songs. Verbal art and discourse genres in the Upper Xingu. The project began in December 2000, supported by the Volkswagen Stiftung, part of the DOBES (Documentation of Endangered Languages), with the support of the TIDEL equipe, Max Planck Institute for Psycholinguistics (Nijmegen). The project aims the documentation of the Kuikuro language and the construction of a multimidia database: grammar, lexicon, spoken and written texts, video, photos, draws, iconography, etc. The project has also the support of the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro/Museu Nacional/Department of Anthropology, where it is being realized, and of the CNPq (brazilian national counsel for the scientific and technological development).
This file was generated from an IMDI 1.9 file and transformed to IMDI 3.0. The substructure of Genre is replaced by two elements named "Genre" and "SubGenre". The original content of Genre substructure was: Interactional = '', Discursive = '', Performance = ''. These values have been added as Keys to the Content information.
In a typical teaching-learning session, so a non-public and almost secret performance, Moká sings the sequence of one of the set of the Jamugikumalu songs, performed ritually and chorally bi women during the Jamugikumalu ritual (the womenÂ?s feast). Moka gives the names of the clusters of songs inside the set and some commentaries and explanations. There are two types of songs from the point of view of having or not a text or intelligible words: songs "with words" (in kuikuro language, telling mainly about love affairs) and songs "without words".
The consultant uses only kuikuro
Bruna Franchetto as session creator and Moká as performer (singer)
