  • Name: Lenine
  • City: Recife, Pernambuco
  • Country: Brazil

My Life & Work

  • Bio: Não é sem razão que Lenine se diz um cantautor: o artista que canta suas próprias composições, ou – como faziam os trovadores do século 12 – transforma em versos as questões, os amores e as sagas de seu tempo. Histórias à base de palavra e música: elementos que, para ele, andam juntos desde sempre. Ou melhor, desde o berço, no Recife, onde começa – em 2 de fevereiro de 1959 – a história de Oswaldo Lenine Macedo Pimentel. Menino do bairro da Boa Vista que vai crescer brincando de caçar caranguejo nos manguezais e pegar jacaré nas ondas da Boa Viagem. São daqui suas primeiras referências musicais: Ângela Maria, Cyro Monteiro, Bach, Chopin, Jackson do Pandeiro, Miltinho, o embolador paraense Ary Lobo e Dorival Caymmi – com o inesquecível “Canções praieiras”.

    Já a paixão pelo rock vem por conta própria, turbinada por suas descobertas de Led Zeppelin, The Police e Frank Zappa, entre outros. Até que conhece o álbum “Clube da Esquina” (Milton Nascimento e Lô Borges, 1972) e, com ele, traz o Brasil de volta a seu universo musical. Depois de tentar o aprendizado formal no Conservatório de Pernambuco (1974), é por suas próprias mãos que vai se encontrar na música e tornar seu violão um meio de expressão – instrumento que, inicialmente, tem o papel de ajudá-lo a vencer a “dificuldade de lidar com pessoas” e, no futuro, será uma das marcas de sua singularidade. Com a vocação artística em ebulição (e as participações nos conjuntos Flor de Cactus e Nós & Voz), aproveita um jantar de família para comunicar sua decisão de abandonar o curso de Engenharia Química na Universidade Federal de Pernambuco, a um ano da formatura. A resposta do pai surpreende e pesa sobre seus ombros na mesma medida: “E por que demorou tanto?”

    O festival MPB Shell, em 1981, é só o primeiro passo da vida de Lenine no Rio de Janeiro, onde se estabelece na Casa 9: uma casa de vila em Botafogo em que vive e é frequentada por companheiros de geração que corriam atrás do mesmo sonho, entre eles o pernambucano Lula Queiroga e os paraibanos Bráulio Tavares, Ivan Santos, Pedro Osmar, Fuba, Tadeu Mathias e julio lurdemir. Deste bunker criativo sairão composições diversas (frutos de todas as combinações possíveis entre os amigos/conterrâneos) e a ideia de uma temporada no Teatro Ipanema, para mostrar a produção da turma em shows à meia-noite. O produtor Roberto Menescal aprova o que vê e o resultado é o 1º disco de Lenine: “Baque solto” (1983), feito em parceria com Lula Queiroga. Nessa época, começa a aparecer na cena alternativa carioca e compõe sambas para o bloco de rua Suvaco de Cristo. Período em que a vida lhe sorri amarelo e que, enquanto o reconhecimento não vem, a segurança é a família, neste caso a produtora de TV Anna Barroso: sua mulher e mãe/madrasta de seus três filhos e futuros parceiros: João Cavalcanti, Bruno Giorgi e Bernardo Pimentel.

    A virada vem com o álbum “Olho de peixe” (1993), que registra o encontro de Lenine com o percussionista Marcos Suzano e se torna o cartão de visitas nas primeiras turnês pelo exterior. O som pop e híbrido de sua música vai se consolidar nos três álbuns seguintes: primeiro, “O dia em que faremos contato” (1997). Depois é a vez do álbum “Na pressão” (1999). Já “Falange canibal” (2002) rende a ele o 1º prêmio de expressão: o Grammy Latino (Melhor Álbum Pop Contemporâneo Brasileiro), que voltará a ganhar – na mesma categoria – com os dois álbuns seguintes: os CDs/DVDs ao vivo “Lenine in Cité” (2004) e “Acústico MTV” (2006). As canções “Martelo Bigorna” e “Ninguém faz ideia” levaram os prêmios de “Melhor Música Brasileira”, num total de cinco prêmios Grammy Latino em sua carreira. Lenine ganhou ainda doze Prêmios da Música Brasileira e 2 APCA (Associação Paulista de Críticos de Arte).

    A experiência de compor balés para a companhia de dança Grupo Corpo – “Breu” (2007) e “Triz” (2013) – faz com que Lenine subverta a concepção de seus discos: em vez de reunir composições prontas num álbum, como nos três discos anteriores, ele passa a definir primeiro o conceito para, em seguida, compor cada uma das faixas, como capítulos de um romance. O disco de 2008, por exemplo, parte da paixão de Lenine pelas orquídeas, sendo batizado com o nome de uma espécie do nordeste brasileiro: “Labiata”. Já no álbum “Chão” (2011), 1º produzido por seu filho Bruno Giorgi (com Jr. Tostoi e o próprio Lenine) agrega à música sons do cotidiano: seja de uma chaleira, de um canarinho, de uma cigarra ou de uma máquina de lavar roupa. A nova trilogia se fecha com “Carbono” (2015), no qual se reconecta a suas raízes pernambucanas.

    Os passos seguintes se dão na Holanda, onde é feito o CD/DVD “The bridge – Lenine & Martin Fondse Orchestra – Live at Bimhuis” (2016), e no Rio de Janeiro, onde seu 13º disco de carreira traz no nome – “Em trânsito” (2018) – uma boa síntese do fazer artístico de Lenine: cantautor a caminho das próximas trovas, de novas reflexões e olhares sobre seu tempo. Caminhada de destino imprevisível, mas com pelo menos uma certeza: a de que nosso cantautor estará fazendo música livre, sem adjetivos, no exercício constante de se reinventar a cada novo trabalho.

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.
