This lively ensemble brings you the original Samba, from the time when it was the true expression of the Brazilian people. By presenting Samba scores by the very best composers from the 1920s to the 1960s the three members of revista do samba offer a sensuous, poetic and very enjoyable journey.
The project, which rose from repertoire research, extended itself to the origins of samba and the perception that sambas written long ago are still fresh in mind of so many people in our country.
The revista do samba project brings up the moment that samba became the main cultural expression of Brazilian people. Based on this idea the trio presents songs of the greatest composers of Brazil, like Adoniran Barbosa, Geraldo Pereira, Paulo Vanzolini, Ataulfo Alves, Wilson Batista, Jadir Ambr󳩯, Lupicí®©o Rodrigues, Noel Rosa, Cartola, Monsueto, Dorival Caymmi, among many others. The songs are part of each Brazilian personal history, sambas that are somehow familiar to every soul in Brazil.
Based in S㯠Paulo, the trio, Letí£©a Coura, Beto Bianchi and Vitor da Trindade, communicate with humor. Their lyrics are fun and happy and their melodies are light and easy to learn.
The presented sambas are part of the cultural memory of the great majority of Brazilians. Letí£©a Coura is also an actress, Beto Bianchi is a composer and researcher, and Vitor da Trindade is a composer and expert on Afro-Brazilian culture.
