Event Details
presents
an introduction to the classic Brazilian instrumental music
with internationally acclaimed artists
~ Choro das 3 ~
Wednesday, July 10, 2013, 7 pm
First Congregational Church, 1000 S. Cooper St., Memphis
$20 adult / $10 students
We've all heard Brazilian music, right?
Bossa nova... Carmen Miranda... Samba!
But the music that gave rise to all of these is
Choro
...the first Brazilian urban music.
Choro - the musical melting pot of 19th-century Rio.
Choro - the earthy, sophisticated, humorous, daring, joyous soul of Brazil.
Choro - an authentic living tradition, enjoying a worldwide renaissance.
Memphis has never seen authentic choro played live.
How do you say it? SHORE-oo.
What kind of music is this?
Choro blends “the influences of the European court music, West African rhythms, American jazz, Eastern European polkas and Klezmer music, Italian mandolins, Russian 7-string guitars, and marching band music..."
(Jovino Santos Neto)
Choro developed as an almost purely instrumental style.
All-night jam sessions, called rodas de choro, became common in the early 20th century. At these gatherings, the players formed an almost spiritual connection with their music. To be accepted at the rodas, musicians had not only to play well, but also to understand the essentially improvisational language of choro.
Now MAMA is delighted to bring this music to you!
Choro das 3 is a Brazilian trio formed in 2003 by 3 sisters, then aged 10-15,
from the state of Sao Paulo.
Despite their youth, sisters Corina, Lia and Elisa have amassed an amazing number of achievements. They have played for audiences large (over a million) and small, for President Lula da Silva, and for a major Brazilian television show akin to our Late Show with David Letterman. They've garnered numerous national awards in a country that takes its music VERY seriously, performed for audiences in Europe and Japan - and are now headed to the US for their first tour of North America, including a week-long teaching residency at the Mandolin Symposium. Choro das 3 released their debut CD, entirely recorded, produced and mixed by the sisters, in 2008, following up with Escorregando in 2012. By the time we see them, their newest CD, Boas Novas (Good News), will be released.
Most choro aficionados will tell you that to get a real sense of choro,
one must actually see it performed live.
