Very Good in Dustjacket. 067176814x. 320 pages. hardcover. Jacket design by Mary Bess Engel. Jacket illustration by Lori Lohstoeter. keywords: Latin America Brazil Dance Travel. DESCRIPTION - Follow the music and get to the beating heart of Brazil! From the programmed mayhem of Carnival to the pounding drums of cult priestesses, from the cowpoke ballads of the drought-stricken Northeast to Rio's sophisticated pop tunes, John Krich sings beyond the stereotypes to evoke a culture of transcendent pleasure. Using musical expression as the entrEe to a complex and contradictory society, the iconoclastic author of Music in Every Room and El Bëisbol takes us on an unforgettable journey to the heart and soul of South America's most diverse county. Krich's 'one-man samba' moves through travelogue, political reportage, ethnography, in-depth interviews, and playful, sumptuous prose. Born of a lifelong passion for the music of Brazil that began with 'The Girl from Ipanema,' this eyewitness account describes the roots of styles influencing world music today. Along the way we are plunged into the frenetic folklore of Brazil's major Carnivals; taken on a guided tour of Afro-Brazilian religious sects; sent out along back roads to colonial outposts echoing with song-only to end up in the Amazon rain forest on a hilarious search for the origins of the lam bada. And we are introduced to the county's musical heroes, including the grand old man of bossa nova, Antonio Carlos Jobim; Bahia's folk poet Caetano Veloso; the irrepressible champion of black rights, Gilberto Gil; pop vocalist Milton Nascimento; Carmen Miranda's legendary songwrite~ Sinval Silva; as well as a generation of unknown sambistas who play for love alone. Welcome, then, to Brazil, where, as Krich observes, 'there's always more and most, even of less.' How can the nation with the greatest wealth of usable land, coastline, and coffee also have the most unequal distribution of wealth and the highest external debt? With millions of homeless children on the street and hundreds killed annually by death squads, how can Brazil remain a realm 'organized for joy'? Why is this country dancing? That is the question Krich asks-and answers-in a passionate book that pulses with irresistible rhythms. inventory #21463. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers z21463
