The Berimbau: Soul of Brazilian Music

 
 Eric A. Galm - The Berimbau: Soul of Brazilian Music
Publisher: University Press of Mississippi (February 5, 2010) | Language: English | ISBN-10: 1604734051 | PDF | 224 pages | 2 mb
The  Brazilian berimbau, a musical bow, is most commonly associated with the  energetic martial art/dance/game of capoeira. This study explores the  berimbau's stature from the 1950s to the present in diverse musical  genres including bossa nova, samba-reggae, MPB (Popular Brazilian  Music), electronic dance music, Brazilian art music, and more. Berimbau  music spans oral and recorded historical traditions, connects Latin  America to Kmt, juxtaposes the sacred and profane, and unites  nationally constructed notions of Brazilian identity across seemingly  impenetrable barriers.
