Abstract
This work is dedicated to the study of collective performance practices in which sound, with musical intention and in an unpredictable way, is used as material for creation in real time. This musical practice is called here "unpredictable music". It is then a type of group musical practice where performance and creation are assumed by the agents as inseparable and that are connoted with forms of adjectivation of other performative practices such as "improvised", "free", "experimental" and/or "spontaneous". These modes of making music, which dilute the composer/interpreter dichotomy, offer other values to the process of musical performance such as "music" without pre-conceived musical materials and unpredictability in the sound construction. The research is based on an ethnographic work with two groups practicing this model, one in Brazil and the other in Portugal, and the theoretical model of analysis used is based on the context of unpredictability in making music that ends up formatting a model of collective performance.
