Episode 81: Brazil Regional
Topicology is featuring the beautiful music of Brazil throughout the month of February. Each week in February will have a different theme; today we are starting with the regional music of Brazil.
Of course there are many types of music popular in different parts of Brazil, but when one speaks of the regional music of Brazil that almost always refers to the music of Brazil’s northeast and north regions, including forro and related variations, along with carimbo and related variations. These types of music have a place in the Brazilian canon much like Country & Western music in the United States: in both cases the music comes from a part of the country that is more rural than industrial, and in both cases the music is judged to be lowbrow culture by people in the most cosmopolitan cities. Forro and its varieties come from the northeast region, while carimbo comes from the north. I’ll play some carimbo at the end of the show today… most of the show will be devoted to forro and music of the northeast.
