Abstract
The paper develops some reflections on audiovisual recording as a tool for ethnomusicological research. Framed in the fieldwork carried out as a master’s dissertation, which interviewed and recorded in audiovisual support about 40 musicians (mainly accordion and bandoneon players) from the northeastern region of Uruguay bordering Brazil, we review some experiences of researchers who among other things sought (and seek) to reflect on the uses of the audiovisual inside and outside the academy (Rouch, Macdougall, etc.). Some of the consequences generated by fieldwork using the camera are presented. In particular, the potential of the audiovisual as a tool in the construction of the object of study is proposed and reaffirmed.
