Summary: The study seeks to read the work The Twilight Discs (2017), by São Paulo writer Cadão Volpato (1956-), based on the aesthetic formulations developed by the german essayist Walter Benjamin (1982-1940). This perspective of reading moves between a peculiar relationship between the city, music and literature. Going through the reflection about the modern city and Benjamin's conception of the technical reproduction of art, we intend to find in this author, significant references to interpret the listener's aesthetic experience in the referred work of Cadão Volpato, since reading the Benjamin texts Paris, Capitale du XIX Siècle (1939), L'ouvre d'art à l'époque de sa reproduction mécanisée (1936), and Origin of the German Tragic Drama (2011).
