Acoustic Moods

sat 8 apr 2017 22:00 hour
Composer: Adoniran Barbosa

In our ‘living room’, Karin van den Boogaert and Charlie Crooijmans receive all manner of World Music performers. Charlie Crooijmans plays recent field recordings from the Brazilian state of Bahia.

Music journalist Charlie Crooijmans visited the Brazilian state of Bahia earlier this year. She made field recordings of three different events. Frist, during a multi ethnic meeting of representatives of native people. So, Indians with feathered headdresses and all, who showed their songs and dances. Then, it was on to the festival ‘Dancing in Peace’, were traditional groups displayed their African roots. Both these events were organised by Glaucia Rodrigues. One week later,  the celebration of the goddess of the sea, Yemanja took place in Salvador. You can hear an impression of these events, in the shape of a collage. First up is a stanza of a cordel, a form of poetry, written and sung by ethnic musicologist and percussionist Paulo Dias, accompanied on the accordion by Gabriel Levy.

“Vou saudar nesta hora a minha amiga
Que organiza este evento tão bacana
Alma nobre, a Glaucia sempre chama
Todo povo na roda da cantiga
Todo ano reune e dá liga
Pra um mundo de gente original
No caminho do sopro ancestral
Que anima o corpo em movimento
Deus que traga saude e muito alento
Longa vida a projeto tão vital”
(Hier wordt de organisator van het evenement lof toegezongen)

Na avenida que é campo de batalha
Com rajadas de ritmos retinindo”
