Monobloco feat. Lenine - "Suite Dos Pescadores ( Minha Jangada ) "

.


Monobloco live, oct 2005 in rio de janeiro at the "circo voador".

"Singer, composer, arranger, guitarist and producer, Lenine has been labeled "the new prince of Brazilian pop." His music is based on the maracatu tradition from Recife, in Pernambuco, his native state in the northeast of the country. He compares himself to a chameleon, always changing colors. He chooses them intuitively and describes how he spreads them with a leisurely mixed metaphor: "I sort of sway back and forth in a hammock.... (more ) " .

João Bosco & Zizi Possi - "O Bêbado e a Equilibrista"

.


João Bosco and Zizi Possi at " Som Brasil" June 2009 .

...."Bosco's career rise coincided roughly with Brazil's military dictatorship which lasted from 1964-1985 and his work, even the most innocuous love song, was frequently censored. As he noted in an interview in the early 90s, "Anything you composed or sang was censored. And there were no guidelines as to what you could or couldn't do. Every piece of music I wrote meant spending hours in the censorship bureau, debating with them, sometimes over one word." In 1977 Bosco wrote what was (and is) his most personal protest song, "O Bebaido e a Equilibrista" (The Drunkard and the Tightrope Walker), which became the theme song of Amnesty International. Despite his fame in Brazil, Bosco wasn't known to Americans until he made a guest appearance with jazz guitarist Lee Ritenour on the latter's 1988 record Festival. The guest spot wasn't enough to make Bosco an international superstar, but he did begin attracting more interest in the US. It wasn't until the early 90s that Bosco mounted a major tour of the US, but since then he has become increasingly popular internationally regularly performing at the prestigious Montreux Jazz Festival which over its history has frequently featured Brazilian performers.".... more   (  John Dougan, Rovi )
