SUMMARY:Levine Presents | Brazilian Choro: The Musical World of Pixinguinha
DESCRIPTION:Explore the imaginative and intriguing melodies of Brazilian choro with an evening celebrating the genre’s most influential composer\, Alfredo da Rocha Viana Filho\, also known as Pixinguinha. Alongside a remarkable guest ensemble\, faculty member Ceylon Mitchell guides us through this Afro-Brazilian genre as we sample some of the most famous choros composed by Pixinguinha and his contemporaries. \nAbout Brazilian Choro\nChoro emerged as a distinct musical genre around the middle of the 19th Century in Rio de Janeiro as a blend of Afrodiasporic and European musical styles in newly independent Brazil. Syncopated rhythms from Africa and popular dance forms from Europe (the polka\, habanera\, and more) melded together to create a unique new style\, which often gives the lead and highly ornamented melody to the flute\, harmonically supported by guitar and cavaquinho. Percussive accompaniment often comes from the pandeiro\, a Brazilian frame drum similar to a tambourine. Though choros are frequently instrumental and improvisatory\, they do feature lyrics from time to time.  \nFeaturing: Ceylon Mitchell\, flute; Seth Kibel\, sax; Pablo Regis de Oliveira\, cavaquinho; Felipe Garibaldi\, guitar; Lucas Ashby\, percussion; and André Coelho\, percussion \nLevine Music gratefully acknowledges the support of the DC Commission on the Arts and Humanities and all our generous donors.
