| | Slipcue E-Zine: Brazilian Music Guide - Miscellaneous Albums "V" This is a listing of miscellaneous albums and artists under the letter "V". | | | Fans of old-school fusion will be dazzled to hear the music alive and well in the new century; other listeners may want to tread more lightly. | | | Sometimes song deconstructions can take on a life of their own and offer radical, eye-opening reinterpretations of the original music; I really don't think this was one of those great events. |

| Â | Brazilian Music: Roots 1 |
| | Gabriel Soares de Sousa, a Portuguese colonist and chronicler, described in his 1587 treatise called Tratado Descritivo do Brasil the songs, dances and musical instruments of several tribes. | | | Over the centuries, simple folk, Jesuits and noblemen brought with them traditional dances and dramatic dances like the Bumba-meu-boi, lullabies and nursery rhymes, poetical and lyrical forms, and almost all of the basic musical instruments we hear in Brazil today: flute, clarinet, cavaquinho, guitar, piano, violin, cello, accordion and the tambourine. | | | With the lundus and modinhas (sentimental songs) composed by Domingos Caldas Barbosa (1739-1800) we have the first documented popular music of Brazil. |
