Resumo (apenas em inglês):
This article examines the transformations in musical activity in Mozambique between 1987 and 1994, a period marked by the transition from a socialist single-party to a capitalist multiparty system. Drawing on data from articles published in local newspapers and complemented by interviews with key individuals, this study focuses on three pivotal domains of musical activity: radio broadcasting, the phonographic industry and entertainment industries. It aims to clarify the importance of musicking activities in reflecting the cultural, social and economic transformations that occurred in Mozambique, particularly in the capital city Maputo, as well as the decline of the ‘new Mozambican man’ cultural project. It also delves into various topics, including the production shift from vinyl records to cassettes, the invitation of international artists as a symbol of ‘openness’ to capitalist countries and the broader revisions made to broadcasting and phonographic publishing policies.
