Qualquer
pessoa familiarizada ao universo do jazz já ouviu falar sobre Charles
Mingus. Além de estar entre os maiores baixistas desse gênero em todos
os tempos, o seu nome figura entre seus maiores compositores e
arranjadores. A tragédia faz parte da vida dos músicos de jazz,
principalmente dos negros, isso não é novidade. São incontáveis os
trabalhos produzidos em praticamente todas as mídias explorando a
biografia dos músicos de jazz.
Charlie Parker teve sua vida
contada em Bird do diretor e ator Clint Eastwood, declaradamente amante
deste gênero musical. Lester Young teve sua vida em Paris contada no
comovente Por Volta da Meia Noite, filme em que foi interpretado por
outro grande sax tenorista, Dexter Gordon. Isso para ficarmos em dois
exemplos já consagrados. Documentários sobre a vida dos gênios do jazz
pululam na internet, mas aqui indico a vocês a história contada por seu
protagonista.
Recentemente tivemos a oportunidade de vivenciar a
discussão se as biografias sobre músicos brasileiros deveriam ser
inspecionadas pelos biografados, interferindo diretamente no trabalho do
biógrafo. Esse “cuidado” revela o medo desses músicos em revelar
determinados fatos de suas vidas, preocupados com possíveis “manchas”
nas imagens impecáveis construídas ao longo da carreira. Não é o caso de
Saindo da Sarjeta. Mingus vai fundo na própria história, expondo seus
medos, complexos, personalidades e fatos pouco gloriosos de uma vida
conturbada e cheia de altos e baixos. No caso de Mingus todas as searas
de sua vida estão diretamente ligadas à sua música e ao seu método de
criação.
Saindo da Sarjeta é muito mais do que uma coleção de
relatos extravagantes para impactar, chocar, fazer rir e compartilhar em
rodas de conversas a fim de mostrar o quão alucinado era Charles
Mingus. Sua autobiografia revela a ligação íntima entre a vida e a
música de Mingus. Não bastasse ser este o registro emocionante e
valoroso da sua história pessoal e do próprio jazz a partir da segunda
metade dos anos 40, Saindo da Sarjeta revela o talento do baixista, para
além do modo como manipulava os sons. O texto é rico em estilo
literário, conceitos e metáforas, se mostrando sedutor e de leitura
aprazível.
O primeiro capítulo reúne todos os elementos a serem
desdobrados ao longo do livro. A leitura pega o leitor de assalto
convidando-o a acompanhar o ritmo alucinado e conturbado da vida do
músico, tanto no aspecto físico quanto mental. Os conflitos existenciais
foram vivenciados por Mingus. A condição social do negro na sociedade
americana responsável por retirar-lhe a humanidade, tornando-o objeto,
uma coisa, demarcando sua inferioridade em relação ao homem branco,
causava em Mingus revolta e traumas.
Desde a infância foi
assombrado pelo fantasma do racismo, começando dentro de casa quando o
pai dizia que os membros de sua família não eram negros por terem a pele
“mais clara”. Isso causou traumas profundos dos quais Mingus jamais se
livrou. Entrando, na pré-adolescência experimentava os efeitos dessa
educação recebida no lar pelo pai. Quando saia nas ruas sofria o racismo
como os negros e isso o deixava confuso na medida que aprendeu em casa
não ser negro. Os erros da educação familiar eram sempre corrigidos pela
educação do mundo.
A perseguição desde a infância do homem
branco levou à militância contra o racismo e à conscientização sobre a
causa civil dos negros nos EUA. Contudo, Mingus possuía uma
personalidade esquizofrênica, em algum grau pelo menos. No primeiro
parágrafo do livro ele diz ao psicólogo possuir dentro de si três
Mingus. Essa percepção de si dá um sabor especial à narrativa do livro.
Para entendermos melhor esse ponto temos que conhecer os três Mingus.
Transcrevo o primeiro parágrafo do livro, primeiro momento do diálogo
entre Mingus e o psicólogo.
“Em outras palavras, eu sou três. Um
homem fica sempre no meio, despreocupado, sem se emocionar, observando,
esperando que lhe permitam expressar o que ele vê para os outros dois. O
segundo homem é como um animal assustado que ataca por medo de ser
atacado. E, então, há uma pessoa gentil e super amorosa que acolhe as
pessoas no templo mais sagrado do seu ser, aceita insultos, confia,
assina contratos sem ler, cai na conversa dos outros e acaba trabalhando
barato ou de graça, e quando percebe o que lhe fizeram tem vontade de
matar e destruir tudo ao seu redor, inclusive a si mesma por ter sido
tão estúpida. Mas não consegue, e volta para dentro de si mesma.”
A
distinção dessas três personalidades convivendo juntas na psique de
Mingus mostra a compreensão que tem de si próprio e estabelece o modo
como a narrativa será construída. Isso porque é o primeiro Mingus quem
conta a história, relatando os acontecimentos envolvendo os outros dois.
O primeiro Mingus se caracteriza pelo autocontrole, capacidade de
analise e tomar decisões conscientes, planejadas, além de ter força e
frieza suficientes para amparar os outros dois em seus momentos de
descontrole, dor e frustração. Momentos em que esses sentimentos se
manifestam são constante. O terceiro Mingus é o protagonista, o segundo o
ator coadjuvante.
Faz parte da índole do baixista idealizar as
relações humanas, seja no âmbito pessoal ou profissional. Há sempre a
presença de ações despretensiosas buscando melhorar a condição do negro
na sociedade, de fazer da música um fim em si mesmo, de idealizar a
figura feminina, de constituir laços de família sólidos e harmônico,
constituindo uma visão extremamente romântica da vida.
Mas tudo
isso se desfaz quando “os outros”, em suas decisões e ações, frustram as
expectativas em torno das idealizações criadas pelo terceiro Mingus. A
questão se mostra mais profunda pelo fato dessas idealizações conduzirem
as ações de Mingus. Isso traz à tona toda a ingenuidade dessa
personalidade desarmada que se entrega despida às determinações de sua
alma. Temos a configuração perfeita de alguém que se torna alvo fácil
dos predadores da “selva” de asfalto e concreto. Nesse momento explode o
segundo Mingus, destruidor, selvagem, capaz das maiores barbáries
contra si e aqueles que o machucaram, seja seu empresário, amigo ou a
mulher que ama.
Quando o segundo Mingus sacia sua sede de
destruição, o terceiro surge e se deprime, se arrepende, afogando-se na
própria dor, levando-o a ultrapassar os limites da sanidade. Nesse vai e
vem de personalidades que governam a vida de Mingus, somos colocados
diante de seu corpo jogado na sarjeta de forma literal. Entre essa briga
de personalidades vemos o Mingus sedento por sexo, o gigolô, o junk, o
que odeia os brancos com seus valores e seu mundo, o gênio musical, o
louco, o criminoso, o que não encontra lugar no mundo, o irresponsável e
enfim o Mingus que encontra a redenção!?
Não sei se isso
realmente acontece, embora ele a busque constantemente. Neste sentido
vou até além, confessando que terminei o livro e não posso dizer se
Charles Mingus realmente conseguiu sair da sarjeta. O que sei é que
trata-se de um dos grandes gênios do século XX. Resenha: Oganpazan.Site Oficial.
