Resumo: Industrialization, accelerated urbanization, increased material wealth, expansion of the consumer society, incentive to competition and environmental degradation represent multiple dimensions of the development existing in Brazil over the last forty years. Upon reflecting about this process, this thesis is based on the understanding that eagerness for development is indicative of the existence of a self-colonized imaginary, as Serge Latouche says, among considerable portions of Brazilian people. Understanding that art creates a deeper and truer knowledge on the essence of the world, according to the comprehension announced by Arthur Schopenhauer, I point out that Brazilian composers, upon seeing beforehand the symptoms of the evil of civilization expressed under the sign of development, spread ideas which poetically decolonize our imaginary. Being convinced that we can and must get out of the line, invent new ways, announce a forbidden knowledge, discuss implausible hypotheses, unfinished ideas, as Maria da Conceição de Almeida states, I present the notion of DESdesenvolvimento as a cognitive operator which potentializes the imaginary decolonization revealed by several songs by Brazilian composers
