0016 – Matita Perê – Sivuca, Clara Nunes, Fagner, Tom and João Gilberto

Sivuca has composed so many beautiful songs about our Northeast region. You will know three songs, from the album Cabelo de Milho, which was recorded in 1980. You’ll find two great singers in this album: Fagner, who was featured here with Hermeto Pascoal, in Meu Violão edition, and Clara Nunes, our female samba super star, who wasn’t presented yet. A big surprise for the future.

João Gilberto doesn’t need any introduction. Born in Bahia, he is considered to be the father of Bossa Nova. Let’s listen to two less known songs from the album which brought our most known rythm in the world to life, Chega de Saudade, 1958.

Tom Jobim is a huge idol in Brazil and United States too, since he’s lived there for many years and recorded many albuns in USA studios. We’ll listen two samples from the tiny album Matita Perê, from 1973.

0010 – Meu Violão – Capiba, Chico Buarque, Caetano Veloso, Raphael Rabello, Baden Powell and Fagner

Capiba’s song are integral part of Pernambuco’s lore. It is a state in the Northeast region. We’ll play two of the songs he made after the famous cities Recife (his hometown) and Olinda (the city with one of the best carnivals in the world). Raphael Rabello’s guitar is featured in both songs. Chico Buarque and Caetano Veloso’s voices are also featured. Raphael Rabello was producing this album while he prematurely died, in 1995. In 2002, her sister, the musician Luciana Rabello, finished the beautiful production.

We’ll play also three Baden Powell’s songs. The legendary acoustic guitar player interprets Luiz Gonzaga, Moacir Santos and one of his own songs, the remarkable Berimbau. Great live stuff, recorded in Frankfurt, 1975. He also sings here with his delicate voice.

The singer Raimundo Fagner is well known for his dramacity. Few people know the begining of his great career. I’ll show two from the album Orós, which was produced by the music wizard Hermeto Pascoal in 1977.
