A study on the Brazilian viola (five-string guitar) in the context of the caipira culture of south-central Brazil. Vilela, himself a virtuoso of the instrument, analyzes the language, poetical forms, and sonority of caipira music. Author conducted several interviews with migrant performers and argues that their music expresses cultural resistance in face of urbanization and the culture industry pressure. Discusses issues of migration, origin, and memory and examines some recent revival movements. Book is accompanied by a CD with Vilela's compositions. No library descriptions found. |
