Brazil: The Northeast-São Paulo Connection
Afropop Worldwide travels to the sprawling megalopolis of São Paulo. Experiencing the city's 22 million inhabitants is overwhelming at first, but music helps you put things in perspective. You'll hear the story of the relationship between the musically rich but impoverished northeast of Brazil and its people who have traveled to São Paulo looking for work. We hear different takes of northeastern forró, very popular in São Paulo--forró universitario and forró electronico. We visit with Chico Cesar, a northeasterner living in São Paulo. We talk to leading music journalists who illuminate the complicated Brazilian music scene for us. Plus lots more. |
