Qualitative, descriptive research developed on November 2012 with 11 health professionals, in a public hospital of the state of Rio de Janeiro. Semi-structured interviews and thematic analysis of the information were conducted. The use of playing before procedures was highlighted as a facilitator on palliative care. The child’s physical condition, one’s restriction, resistance of some professionals and the lack of time for developing this activity, made the use of play harder. We concluded that playing enables the child with cancer, in palliative care, a humanized assistance, being fundamental to integrate it on the care for these children. Descriptors: Palliative care. Pediatric nursing. Play and playthings. Neoplasms. RESUMO O estudo teve como objetivos descrever as formas de utilização do brincar pela equipe de enfermagem no cuidado paliativo de crianças com câncer e analisar as facilidades e difi culdades do uso do brincar neste cuidado.

NOTES: Config & Selection #: CD 520960 Foolin' Street Date: 10/27/09 Order Due Date: 10/07/09 UPC: 093624973119 Box Count: 30 Unit Per Set: 1 SRP: $18.98 Alphabetize Under: B OTHER EDITIONS: For the latest up to date info on this release visit WEA.com. ALBUM FACTS Genre: Rock Producers: Devendra Banhart & Paul Butler Special Packaging Info: Includes a 36-page booklet with all illustrations and drawings done by Devandra Description: What Will We Be has a sunny, breezy feel with performances that evoke warm, lazy afternoons spent with good friends. The album is dominated by powerfully melodic, mid-tempo numbers played with relaxed expertise. But there's also ambitious stylistic range displayed with the inclusion of evanescent ballads like "Meet Me At the Lookout Point," the epic riff-rocker "Rats" sprightly R&B flavored groovers on "Baby," and the sultry Latin-flavored stunner "Brindo," the Roxy-inspired "16th & Valencia Roxy Music" among other pleasant surprises. What Will We Be was recorded in a sleepy Northern California town throughout the Spring of 2009, and was co-produced by Paul Butler (from UK outfit Band Of Bees). This is the second album Devendra's recorded with the same crew of players: Noah Georgeson (producer of Banhart's last two albums, Little Joy, Bert Jansch and Joanna Newsome) on guitar and backing vocals, Greg Rogove (Priestbird) on drums and backing vocals; Luckey Remington (The Pleased) on bass and vocals and Rodrigo Amarante (Los Hermanos, Little Joy) on guitar and backing vocals.

  • Rodrigo Amarante Shares New Single/Video, “Tango” New Album, Drama, out Next Friday, July 16Th on Polyvinyl
    July 8, 2021 For Immediate Release Rodrigo Amarante Shares New Single/Video, “Tango” New Album, Drama, Out Next Friday, July 16th on Polyvinyl (Photo by Eliot Lee Hazel) “[Rodrigo Amarante’s] music has its own push and pull, with three-against-two rhythms and a tangle of instrumental lines — guitars, percussion, a nasal synthesizer, a horn section, some whistling — that interlock but sound like they might collide at any moment. It sounds charmingly ramshackle; it’s not.” — The New York Times “[Rodrigo Amarante’s] rich voice and inventive, genre-crossing arrangements make for music that remains as vital as ever." — The AV Club (“Albums We Can’t Wait to Hear in July”) “...on ‘Drama,’ his first solo record in seven years, the Rio-born and L.A.-based Amarante brings a collection of breezy, tropicalia-soaked songs sung in both Portuguese and English.” — Paste (“The 10 Albums We're Most Excited About in July”) "It's hard to not be captivated by Brazilian singer-songwriter Rodrigo Amarante's limber rhythms and infectious vocal melodies. So, let yourself be.” — MTV News Next Friday, July 16th, Rodrigo Amarante will release his new album, Drama, via Polyvinyl. Today, he presents its third single/video, “Tango,” which may be the key to the theme of the album. Over a buttery melody and accommodating arrangement, “Tango” is a song about a relationship disguised as a partner dancing lesson: exploring one’s need for support, struggling with voicing that, and eventually finding it. “When I wrote this song I was projecting the idea of a love that lasts, one that is mutually supportive and reliable, safe in that sense, and I can't imagine that being possible without a good dose of sense of humor,” says Amarante.

  • Rodrigo Amarante Returns with New Album, Drama, out 7/16 on Polyvinyl Watch Video for Lead Single “Maré”
    May 5, 2021 For Immediate Release Rodrigo Amarante Returns With New Album, Drama, Out 7/16 on Polyvinyl Watch Video for Lead Single “Maré” (Photo Credit: Julia Brokaw) “It feels relaxing to abandon the illusion of verisimilitude and bring forth the confusion and contradiction of what I have to work with, these tales, memory. That is the sound of ‘Drama.’” — Rodrigo Amarante Rodrigo Amarante is thrilled to announce his new album, Drama, out July 16th on Polyvinyl. Drama is the long-awaited follow-up to Amarante’s acclaimed 2014 debut, Cavalo – also being reissued by Polyvinyl, a stunning and intimate collection of songs where “every instrument breathes and every sound blends, yet every moment is distinct” (NPR Music). In conjunction with today’s announcement, Amarante unveils Drama’s lead single, “Maré,” and it’s accompanying self-directed video. An upbeat, seemingly happy song with less jolly aspects hidden beneath the surface, “Maré” is based on Spanish proverb: the tide will fetch what the ebb brings. “Things that arrive in your hand by destiny, they are just as easily swept away,” explains Amarante. About the video, Amarante explains: “This song is about how we shape our destiny and character by what we crave, wish, dream about, despite the outcome. The video is not. That is deliberate. The video is about writing the song, or any song, not about the song itself. It is a representation of writing it, a look on the work that is to produce the magic that is writing, this way looping back to what shapes my own destiny, my wishes and cravings, what the song talks about.
