| Summary: | Through participant observation and semi-structured interviews, we analyze the youth cultural practices and the formative processes of a percussive group of Maracatu, made up of students from a public university in Minas Gerais. The objective is to know the practices of political and cultural formation lived by group, through the cultivation of traditions from the Maracatu Nation of Pernambuco. The dilemmas faced by the group are discussed, in the face of gender issues and relations with tradition and religiosity. The results highlight the richness of the self-training and self-management practices of the university group, which constitute subjectivation processes of great cultural and political power.
