  • 2. Cazuza E Barão Vermelho Com O Mesmo Nome De Batismo
    2. Cazuza e Barão Vermelho Com o mesmo nome de batismo do “sambista” Cartola, Agenor Miranda de Araújo Neto, apelidado “Cazuza”, cresceu no grand monde da música popular brasileira, já que era filho do produtor musical da gravadora Som Livre, João Araújo. O cantor aprendeu desde cedo a dosar o lirismo passional da MPB com o rock, construindo uma identidade com o intercâmbio de gêneros musicais, do modo por ele relatado: Desde pequeno fui tiete de todo o pessoal da MPB. Elis Regina sempre tava lá em casa. Eu acordava de noite para tomar água, e lá estavam na sala o Gil, Caetano, a Gal. A música popular inteira me pegando no colo. Os Novos Baianos acamparam lá em casa, dormiam, iam comer, porque na época não tinham onde ficar, e meu pai estava produzindo o primeiro disco deles. Só fui curtir rock, Janis Joplin, meus ídolos dos Rolling Stones, lá pelos 14 anos, quando dei uma pirada. Mas antes, o máximo que curtia era coisas do tipo ‘Alone again naturally’, água com açúcar. Nessa época aos 14 anos, passei umas férias em Londres com um primo mais ajuizado. E foi mais uma abertura. Então passei a ouvir Janes Joplin o dia inteiro. Quando comecei a compor, acabei misturando tudo isso. Do menino passarinho com vontade de voar (Luiz Vieira) a Janis Joplin. Mas com uma diferença. A dor de cotovelo da MPB, mas dando a volta por cima. (...) O rock da turma nova veio amenizar o lance down , meio negro, de Lupicínio, do pessoal da antiga, que era a falta de esperança no amor.

  • Goldschmitt-Vicente-Brazilian Music Industry Final
    Popular Music and the Growth of Brazilian Culture Industries since 1945 [Accepted 19 March 2020 for publication in The Oxford Encyclopedia of Brazilian History and Culture] K. E. Goldschmitt, Wellesley College Eduardo Vicente, University of São Paulo Summary The period following the end of Getúlio Vargas’s second government (1951-1954) saw a massive expansion of the media industries with popular music in particular becoming an important cultural touchstone. Some salient trends in the post-War period include the politicization of music and other media (radio, television, social media), the incorporation of international musical influences (especially jazz and rock) into Brazilian musical production, the expansion and contraction of the recording industry, and the rise and prominence of regional genres in the national discourse. Brazilian media industry infrastructures take part in artistic expression, including both major multinational record labels as well as independent record companies. Popular music production has regularly responded to the social and economic upheavals that have characterized Brazil since the end of WWII. Interdisciplinary perspectives, including communication studies, history, anthropology, and ethnomusicology, show some possible new routes for music and cultural industry research in Brazil. KEYWORDS Bossa nova, Brega, Incentive Laws, Independent recording industry, Media Convergence, Modernism, Música Popular Brasileira [MPB], Regional music, Sertanejo, Telenovelas The Lasting Influence of the Vargas Period Any
