Brazilian Music Introduction
Brazilian music show abroad 'a short introduction As a matter of fact, nobody needs a lot of words and explanations to get familiar with "Bananas Samba Show", one of the most creative and original musical groups ever created in Europe. However, it seems appropriate here
not to forget the past, even when the main subject is music and dance.
The "Samba" is, essentially, a music appropriate for dancing and bodily expression. But its poetry is much more flexible and has singular ability of captivating the soul of ordinary people, as well as that's brilliant poets, many of whom have put their pompous style and have fully embraced the uniqueness of the popular song, by recreating it their own compositions. Brazilian popular music became a
reality when the country developed its national character but its importance
is relatively recent. The materialisation of such phenomenon occurred
with flourishing of the "Bossa Nova" in the late 50's when Brazilian
contemporary music actually came into being, thanks basically to the
professional musicians from Rio de Janeiro night clubs and Sao Paulo.
The "Bossa Nova" was not, however, a pioneer in the international market because towards the end of the 30's, Hollywood had already presented in the movie screens all around the world.
