Current News

  • What's Up? Pra falar sobre qualquer coisa relacionada a Elza, precisamos ser superlativos. Porque Elza é superlativa. Qualquer elogio à ela ainda será pouco pro tanto que ela trouxe, traz e trará para a música e a cultura brasileira.

    A cada trabalho ela se reinventa e traz luz a assuntos da nossa atualidade. Elza ferve a sociedade através de sua voz potente e através de suas escolhas que sempre me surpreendem.

    E não é diferente nesse trabalho.

    A primeira pergunta que me fiz foi: Por que “Planeta Fome”?
    Uma história que Elza sempre conta, que biógrafos e historiadores sempre trazem à tona como representação do primeiro momento de posicionamento dela diante do público.

    Por que voltar a essa história agora como título do disco?

    Comecei a ouvir com essa pergunta e já na primeira faixa recebi uma pista.

    A sua fome de reinvenção permanece lá.

    A sua fome de manter-se relevante continua lá, cantando todas as suas indignações, fazendo com que sua música seja um eterno grito com a voz rouca que vai nos encantando, dizendo ao Brasil: “Tome mais, eu tenho sempre mais pra te dar”.

    Depois de “Deus é Mulher”, a grande pergunta é: Como Elza vai fazer um trabalho que tenha um impacto tão grande? E esse tem.

    Ela canta o hoje, as indignação do hoje.

    Ela subverte a lógica de que existe um caminho seguro para o artista. Mais uma vez ela se reinventa. Elza dialoga com a música de hoje e ao mesmo tempo, mantém toda a potência de sua história.

    Na segunda música, eu já estava sem fôlego.

    E cada participação é uma escolha consciente sobre quem ela quer andar de mãos dadas, Virgínia Rodrigues, Russo Passapusso e seus versos desconcertantes, Rafael Mike que compôs e canta com Elza uma música que revisita a sua obra e traz um novo sentido pra dita “ carne mais barata" e ainda tem B negão, orquestra Rumpilez e Pedro Loureiro que mostram que Elza sabe o que faz.

    Entre agogôs e guitarras, Elza vai cantando tudo o que deseja e tudo o que tem fome.

    Fome de amor, de justiça, de força.

    E assim ela faz mais uma obra prima sobre o hoje, que tem sido sua grande meta conquistada com maestria.

    E dessa forma o álbum segue inteiro, deixando a gente sem surpreso a cada faixa que em conjunto completam uma viagem sobre o Brasil de hoje ou talvez de ontem e que ela canta para que tenhamos um outro amanhã.

    Um disco pra ser escutado e ré escutado. Dona Elza canta e agente escuta.

    Não disse que era impossível não ser superlativo?

    Só faltou dizer algo que já é evidente: corajosa e inspiradora.

    - Lázaro Ramos

My Life & Work

  • Bio: A grande diva da MPB, a carioca Elza Soares, nascida e criada em uma favela, filha de lavadeira, casou-se aos 12 anos e aos 13 já era mãe. Por essa época participou do programa do Ary Barroso e ganhou a nota máxima.

    No final da década de 50 foi em turnê com Mercedes Batista para Argentina, onde passou um ano.

    Seu primeiro sucesso veio com o compacto “Se Acaso Você Chegasse” (Lupicínio Rodrigues), onde introduziram um scat a lá Louis Armstrong, injetando uma jazzficação no samba divergente da bossa nova.

    Em seguida mudou-se para São Paulo, onde passou a se apresentar em diversas casas de espetáculos, fazendo sucesso com sua voz rouca e marcante.

    Depois de gravar seu segundo disco, “Bossa Negra”, viajou para o Chile em 1962 como representante do Brasil na copa do mundo. Foi então que conheceu o jogador Mané Garrincha, seu segundo marido.

    Com seu estilo despachado, exagerado, conquistou platéias no Brasil e no mundo, passando temporadas nos EUA e Europa.

    Considerada uma eterna vanguardista, Elza Soares tem o dom de inovar tudo que canta. Ousada, atemporal, ela sempre abriu espaço para diversas tendências artísticas.
    Admirada por artistas como Caetano Veloso, Chico Buarque, Lobão, Cazuza entre outros, Elza se encontra em um momento muito especial da sua carreira, pois está envolvida em um belíssimo projeto denominado "A Mulher do Fim do Mundo", sob produção musical de Guilherme Kastrup, que uniu a cena musical da vanguarda paulista à voz da cantora.

    Enfim, Elza Soares continua com agenda cheia, e com uma vitalidade sobrenatural para seguir com sua respeitada carreira.

The world's artistry via giant steps through a matrix based in the phenomenon placing most of the 7.8 billion of us within 6 or fewer degrees — steps — of each other ...

 

... a project conceived and built in the fertile, fecund and atavistic ground zero of Bahia, Brazil initially for the discoverability of this singular region's dispossessed genius.

 

All explained in the window immediately below. Followed — beneath this window — by scores of magnificent artists, each leading to myriads more artists/categories. Inside this window also  may be found our Brazilian record store radio, named by British journal The Guardian as one of 10 of the Best Radio Stations Around the World!

 

IF YOU CAN'T STAND THE HEAT

 

Brazil is not a European nation. It's not a North American nation. It's not an East Asian nation. It straddles -- jungle and desert and dense urban centers -- both the equator and the Tropic of Capricorn. It absorbed over ten times the number of African slaves taken to the United States of America, and much of its aboriginal population was absorbed into the general population-at-large. Its people have lived under oligarchy, plutocracy, dictatorships and massive corruption, with elements of these still strongly entrenched today.

 

But!

 

Brazil has buzz...not the shallow buzz of a fashionable moment...but the deep buzz of a population which in spite of -- or perhaps because of -- the tough slog through life they've been allotted by humanity's dregs-in-fine-linen, have chosen not to simply pull themselves along but to lift their voices in song and their bodies in dance...to eat well and converse well and much and to wring the joy out of the day-to-day happenings and small pleasures of life which are so often set aside or ignored in the European, North American, and East Asian nations.

 

For this Brazil has a genius perhaps unparalleled in all other countries and societies, a genius which thrives alongside peeling paint and holes in the streets and roads, under bad organization by the powers-that-be, both civil and governmental, under a constant rain of societal indignities...

 

Which is all to say that if you don't know Brazil and you're expecting any semblance of order, progress and light, you will certainly find the light! And the buzz of a people who for generations have responded to privation at many different levels by somehow rising above it all.

 

Raimundo Sodré, in a conversation ranging through New Orleans and Harlem and the South Side of Chicago ... and Appalachia and Irish villages and Russian shtetls and the unofficial symbol of Brazil's Bahian-born national music (the pandeiro) almost certainly having arrived in Brazil in the hands of Sephardic Jews (including conversos) fleeing the Inquisition, once remarked: "Where there's misery, there's music!"

 

A pandeirista on the roof. And it's not just music. And it's not just Brazil.
