Amoroso

Autor: Zuza Homem De Mello

Número de Páginas: 451

A vida e a obra do criador da bossa nova, revisitadas por um de nossos maiores pesquisadores musicais Já não restam superlativos para caracterizar a música de João Gilberto. Com sua voz e seu violão inigualáveis, o criador da bossa nova foi reverenciado no mundo inteiro — até nos deixar, aos 88 anos, em julho de 2019. Escrito pelo produtor e pesquisador musical Zuza Homem de Mello, Amoroso é a primeira biografia dedicada ao baiano de Juazeiro. Personagem tão apaixonante quanto idiossincrático, João Gilberto é aqui retratado pelo prisma de sua arte. De Salvador a Tóquio, passando por Nova York, Rio de Janeiro e Cidade do México, somos levados aos estúdios, teatros, bares, clubes e festivais por onde João circulou, e conhecemos os compositores, arranjadores, instrumentistas, produtores, jornalistas, técnicos de som e empresários que cruzaram seu caminho. Melômano de conhecimento enciclopédico, o autor reconstrói a trajetória musical de seu amigo e ídolo em prosa leve e alegre, sempre elegante e precisa — como ensinou João. "Zuza foi justificadamente o mais respeitado jornalista e musicólogo brasileiro especializado em música brasileira e jazz. Ele era a ...

João Gilberto and Stan Getz's Getz/Gilberto

Autor: Bryan Daniel Mccann

Número de Páginas: 149

Most die-hard Brazilian music fans would argue that Getz/Gilberto, the iconic 1964 album featuring "The Girl from Ipanema," is not the best bossa nova record. Yet we've all heard "The Girl from Ipanema" as background music in a thousand anodyne settings, from cocktail parties to telephone hold music. So how did Getz/Gilberto become the Brazilian album known around the world, crossing generational and demographic divides? Bryan McCann traces the history and making of Getz/Gilberto as a musical collaboration between leading figure of bossa nova João Gilberto and Philadelphia-born and New York-raised cool jazz artist Stan Getz. McCann also reveals the contributions of the less-understood participants (Astrud Gilberto's unrehearsed, English-language vocals; Creed Taylor's immaculate production; Olga Albizu's arresting, abstract-expressionist cover art) to show how a perfect balance of talents led to not just a great album, but a global pop sensation. And he explains how Getz/Gilberto emerged from the context of Bossa Nova Rio de Janeiro, the brief period when the subtle harmonies and aching melodies of bossa nova seemed to distill the spirit of a modernizing, sensuous city. 33 1/3...

João Gilberto - La bossa nova n'existe pas !

Autor: Jean-paul Delfino , Helena Crudeli

Número de Páginas: 159

Découvrez la vie de João Gilberto, père de la bossa nova brésilienne Toute la musique du Brésil a été réinventée par João Gilberto (1931-2019), l'homme de la Bossa Nova. Jean-Paul Delfino l'a très bien connu et plusieurs fois interviewé. Celui que l'on a surnommé O Mito (" la Légende ") est connu pour son excentrisme, réputé pour sa réclusion et son perfectionnisme quasi névrotiques. Sévèrement critiqué par la presse pour ne pas se conformer aux normes de chant de l'époque, marquées par la prédominance de la puissance vocale des chanteurs de radio, João Gilberto s'est donné pour mission de réinventer la technique du chant, en adoptant un style qui lui permet d'explorer différents timbres. Il démonte et de reconstruit les chansons, retravaille leur squelette : chaque son (mélodie, harmonie, rythme, dynamique) est déplacé par la force de la guitare syncopée, des accords inversés, de la voix flottante. Dans l'histoire de la musique, il n'existe pas de mouvements qui puissent être attribués à un unique créateur. Seul João Gilberto est à l'origine de la Bossa Nova.

João Gilberto

Autor: Francesco Bove

Número de Páginas: 198

João Gilberto Prado Pereira de Oliveira è uno dei personaggi più geniali della musica del Novecento, in costante ricerca tra tradizione e innovazione, uno sciamano che trasforma in oro tutto quello che tocca. Il chitarrista brasilia­no è uno degli inventori del celebre ritmo della Bossa Nova che ha dato origine, alla fine degli anni Cinquanta, a un genere inimitabile. João è un tutt’uno con la chitarra e, sin dagli esordi con i gruppi vocali, è ossessionato dalla ricerca di un nuovo modo di suonarla al punto da concentrarsi unicamente su di essa, anche a costo di isolarsi dal mondo. La sua caparbietà proverbiale gli ha permesso di creare un disco clamoroso, chega de saudade, considerato da tutti l’album che ha gettato i semi della Bossa Nova, e di continuare la sua ricerca, imperniata sui bra­ni tradizionali della musica popolare brasiliana. Miles Davis dichiarò che avrebbe potuto suonare bene anche leggendo un elenco telefonico, mentre per Caetano Veloso, João Gilberto è meglio del silenzio. Il libro è il risultato di una ricerca decennale basata su documenti d’archivio e propone un ritratto d’artista dettagliato e appassionato, che mette in primo piano la...

Caetano Veloso

Autor: Carlos Galilea

Número de Páginas: 228

Durante casi treinta años, Caetano Veloso y Carlos Galilea se han ido encontrando en Río de Janeiro, Salvador de Bahía, París, Londres, Madrid o Barcelona para conversar sin tapujos y con una gran complicidad sobre la canción, el cine, la política, el periodismo, el sexo, la vejez... Las 19 conversaciones se recogen en este libro en el que, además, hay textos sobre aspectos destacados de su biografía, una selección de letras de canciones, la discografía completa y un índice de todas sus canciones. "Imposible que alguien tenga un conjunto de entrevistas dadas por mí que produzcan una visión tan completa y articulada de mi vida mental como el que ha reunido Carlos Galilea". [Caetano Veloso, prólogo] Caetano Veloso, uno de los mayores cantantes compositores de nuestro tiempo, es a la lengua portuguesa lo que un Leonard Cohen al inglés, un Brel al francés o un Serrat al español. Desde que publicó su primer disco, hace ya más de medio siglo, se ha ido convirtiendo en referencia indiscutible de la música popular en el mundo y en vehículo privilegiado de la cultura de Brasil. Figura siempre compleja, caleidoscópica, y a menudo desconcertante, a la que han dedicado...

Los trabajos del exilio en les hijes

Número de Páginas: 435

En este volumen procuramos indagar las experiencias del exilio infantil y juvenil argentino acontecido cuando las familias debieron salir del país para escapar del terrorismo de Estado, colocando el foco en el análisis de algunas producciones literarias y artísticas. Bajo este horizonte comenzamos por preguntarnos por el alcance y los límites del término en cuestión: ¿en qué medida la idea de exilio consigue describir la peculiaridad que esta situación adquiere para esta segunda generación? Si este concepto fue pensado para las primeras generaciones: ¿cuáles serían, entonces, los puntos de difracción que les hijes articulan y qué nuevas singularidades adquieren los desplazamientos en ellos? Proponemos explorar los modos en que estas narrativas elaboran la experiencia exiliar en sus diferentes facetas: el desgarramiento de la partida, la confrontación con nuevas lenguas y códigos culturales, la gestión del secreto familiar, la nostalgia por un fantasmático país que no es el propio, el regreso de los padres a rgentina (que a menudo es un primer exilio para los chicos), la conciencia de su doble pertenencia y de su condición híbrida, transterrada, fronteriza....

Faith In Time

Autor: David Ritz

Número de Páginas: 259

Born in Cleveland in 1925, "Little" Jimmy Scott lost his mother at age thirteen, the same year he was diagnosed with Kallman's syndrome. The disease stunted his growth and earned him his nickname, but it also left him with a haunting voice, a mesmerizing voice. He soon built a following as a singer touring with Lionel Hampton's great orchestra in the '40s, then performed with many of the stars of the '50s, from Lester Young to Charlie Parker to Dinah Washington, and was signed by Savoy Records. He thought he had his big break when, in 1962, Ray Charles produced what was by all accounts Jimmy's best work, Falling in Love Is Wonderful. But when it was forced off the shelves by contract disputes, Scott worked as an orderly and clerk in Cleveland for almost two decades. Fans thought he was dead-until songwriter Doc Pomus's funeral in March of 1991.As Pomus had instructed in his will, Jimmy sang over his friend's coffin. High-pitched and androgynous, his voice seemed to come out of thin air, transcending gender and age, evoking pure heartbreak. No one knew who he was-heads turned, celebrities conferred, record executives were reduced to tears-until finally Lou Reed turned around and...

Número de Páginas: 2154

The musical adventure of a lifetime. The most exciting book on music in years. A book of treasure, a book of discovery, a book to open your ears to new worlds of pleasure. Doing for music what Patricia Schultz—author of the phenomenal 1,000 Places to See Before You Die—does for travel, Tom Moon recommends 1,000 recordings guaranteed to give listeners the joy, the mystery, the revelation, the sheer fun of great music. This is a book both broad and deep, drawing from the diverse worlds of classical, jazz, rock, pop, blues, country, folk, musicals, hip-hop, world, opera, soundtracks, and more.

Flanking J. S. Bach and his six entries, for example, are the little-known R&B singer Baby Huey and the '80s Rastafarian hard-core punk band Bad Brains. Farther down the list: The Band, Samuel Barber, Cecelia Bartoli, Count Basie, and Afropop star Waldemer Bastos. Each entry is passionately written, with expert...

The narrative unfolds from a casual visit by the narrator Jack Tate to an exhibition on baroque painting in a gallery in London, when the adventures of Kurupira, a mythical figure of an Amazon Forest goblin with inverted feet and defender of the forest, begin, who offers himself as squire to the greatest English philosopher of this century, Sir Roger Scruton, and seizes his soul during his stay in Brazil. They fight against the 12 evil dragons that inhabit the vast Brazilian territory, symbols of the corruption of the 12 biggest Western moral values.Sir Roger is part of a successor group of the 12 knights of the legendary Round Table, along with Edmund Burke, Alexis de Tocqueville, T.S.

Because only Brazil, a country that lives immersed under the most...
