BROSKY, Jacqueline. The mbyá guaraní children’s choir:. Cuad. antropol. soc. [online]. 2022, n.56, pp.141-156.  Epub 10-Nov-2022. ISSN 1850-275X.  http://dx.doi.org/10.34096/cas.i56.11445.

In a global context that promotes cultural diversity as an economic resource, different government, non-government and private projects have incorporated certain indigenous Mbyá Guaraní expressions within the tourist marketing of the province of Misiones, Argentina. Here are the “children’s choirs”, which are promoted through the internet, audiovisual material and public events, and are proposed as a tourist attraction in visits to indigenous communities. Given that these musical practices carry different meanings to the tourist-commercial logics, it is observed from an ethnographic perspective, the tensions caused by the commercialization and exhibition of the children’s choir in the Mbyá Guaraní community of Pindo Poty. In particular, we examine the reappropriations and the limits of what is marketable and exhibitable that, on its own, the community sets and how the decisions about when and where to exhibit the children’s choir, challenge and exceed the tourist interests of projects that promote it, by being linked to their own political and territorial claims.
