Der brasilianische Komponist, Percussionist und Musikproduzent feiert sein 20-jähriges Jubiläum als Komponist und lädt den Hörer auf eine Reise durch verschiedene musikalische Genres ein.

Das Repertoire reicht von der traditionellen brasilianischen Samba oder Frevo bis hin zum amerikanischen Jazz.

Dies ist eine CD, die durch Vielfältigkeit inspiriert ist, darunter mehrere musikalische Rhythmen, Klangatmosphären und die Beteiligung verschiedener Sänger.

João Araújo wurde in Recife geboren, im Schmelztiegel einer Stadt mit Einflüssen aus europäischen, afrikanischen und indigenen Völkern des amerikanischen Kontinents. Diese Einflüsse haben die eklektischen Ausdrücke in seiner Arbeit geprägt. Er hat einen multidisziplinären akademischen Hintergrund, mit Master-Abschlüssen in Physik und Gegenwarts-Literatur. Er schrieb Essays über die brasilianische Kultur, verfasste Wissenschaftspapiere, Kurzgeschichten und Gedichte.

RELEASE JOÃO ARAÚJO

João Araújo is a poet, composer, percussionist and musical producer. He was born in the city of Recife, Pernambuco, Brazil, a place with many different cultural influences including European (Iberian), African and Native American. Maybe this origin produced eclectic expressions in his work. He composes many different musical genres like choro, samba, bossa nova, waltz and rock, in addition to Brazilian regional styles like baião, frevo, toada, maracatu and caboclinho.

Some of these compositions are made with most special partners, for example, Luciano Magno (guitarist), Dalva Torres (pianist and singer), Bozó 7 Cordas (guitarist), Nuca (guitarist), Walmir Chagas (actor), Beto do Bandolim (bandolinist) and Samuel Valente (composer).

In his artistic way, he produced many CD’s in general styles. Among them, the CD “Valsas Pernambucanas”, made with the participation of many musicians and composers. This CD was supported by the government of the city of Recife. Another line of his artistic work is in the style that is the musical symbol of his hometown: the Frevo. In this musical genre, João Araújo made two new CD’s: the CD “Um Bloco em Poesia”, with the style frevo-de-bloco and the CD “Pernambucarnaval” (in partner with the producer Mangaba Produtos). Particularly, in this last CD in addition to the three frevos’ genres (frevo-de-bloco, frevo-canção and frevo-de-rua) it includes all the rhythms of the Carnival of Pernambuco.

Still in the musical production, João Araújo made the CD “Verso e Canção”, where he gave attention to the local rhythms of North eastern Brazil. This CD had the participation of many local artists. Another work is the CD “Inspirações” of the local musician Adalberto Cavalcanti. The main style in this CD is the Choro.

In 2001, João Araújo established (together with a group of artists and friends) the “Trupe Lírico-Musical Um Bloco em Poesia”, making its anthem “Estandarte Poesia” (with the partnership of Adalberto Cavalcanti). This music is a frevo-de-bloco and it already is famous in the Carnival of Pernambuco. The “Um Bloco em Poesia” is a group of artists and lovers of poetry, frevo music and the cultural values of North eastern Brazil.
