The course “History of samba and bossa nova” presents the origins of samba and the aesthetic innovations brought by the three key artists of Bossa Nova – Tom Jobim, Vinícius de Moraes and João Gilberto – and situates them as a major turning point in the history of Brazilian music.
The goal is to provide an understanding of some aspects of Brazilian society through an interpretation of this music, its texts full of lyricism and its melody full of rhythm.
The course is based on historiographical and sociological texts about the music of Brazil, notably those written by Ruy Castro, Lira Neto, Santuza Naves, Mário de Andrade and Augusto de Campos.

Le contenu est très riche et équilibré entre faits, écoute de morceaux et interaction avec les participants. Oswaldo est un très bon intervenant, sympathique et à l'écoute, qui maîtrise la complexité du sujet abordé et nous propose des angles de visions particulièrement intéressants. Super merci, Oswaldo !!!
