10 minute refresh Benjamim Taubkin e Núcleo de Música do Abaçaí: Côco alagoano
Title: Benjamim Taubkin e Núcleo de Música do Abaçaí: Côco alagoano Description: Côco Alagoano (Domínio público)
Benjamim Taubkin and the Abaçaí Music Nucleus present compositions, adaptations, and arrangements inspired by regional music from all over Brazil.
Between 2003 and 2004, the ensemble played several concerts in São Paulo and recorded the CD "Cantos do Nosso Chão- Songs from Our Ground," which was released on the label, Núcleo Contemporâneo, in Brasil, and Connecting Cultures, in Europe.
They were in Paris in 2005 where they received critical acclaim for their performance in the National Theater of France. The following themes are played by the group: two "Caixeiras do Divino," from Maranhão state, women devoted to the Divine Holy Spirit who sing accompanied by drums; three "Moçambique" themes, one of the principle expressions of the "Congado Mineiro," from Minas Gerais state, played by devotees, principally, of St. Benedict and Our Lady of the Rosary; one sequence of "Cirandas" from Pernambuco state; and a sequence of "Sambas-de-Roda" from Bahia state.
A parceria entre o pianista e o núcleo de pesquisa de cultura tradicional gerou o CD Cantos do Nosso Chão (Gravadora Núcleo Contemporâneo), lançado também na Europa pelo selo Connecting Cultures.
O repertório do álbum é composto por temas das "Caixeiras do Divino", do Maranhão; de "Moçambique", de Minas Gerais; Ciranda Pernambucana e Sambas-de-Roda do recôncavo baiano. Músicas em arranjos que trazem os elementos das culturas tradicionais com um olhar urbano. O que significa o encontro de duas realidades brasileiras paradoxalmente contemporâneas.
Músicos: Ari Colares (percussão), Benjamim Taubkin (piano), João Taubkin (contra-baixo), Mazé Cintra (percussão e voz), Neusa de Souza (percussão e voz), Sapopemba (percussão e voz) e Verlúcia Nogueira (percussão e voz).
O grupo já realizou shows no Brasil e na Espanha.
