Release Notes:
Adriana Calcanhotto (formerly Calcanhoto) is a MPB/pop singer/composer revealed
in 1990 who had great success in Brazil, and helped bring Brazilian music again
to the hit parade after the 1980s were characterized as the Brazilian rock
period.
Her father, a jazz drummer, accompanied Elis Regina in her early career, and
influenced Calcanhotto's taste for music. She started out in Porto Alegre
playing and singing at small bars then moved to Rio, where she was invited to
sing at bars of the same style. Her novice repertory of only ten songs wasn't
enough for a gig, but she insisted anyway. The widespread notion that she began
her career as a barbecue restaurant singer is not true; she sang only one night
there and never returned, due to her small repertory.
In 1990, she recorded her first album, Enguiτo. There she revealed a young
singer with unusual taste for MPB as the album had "Nunca" (Lupicφnio Rodrigues,
also a ga·cho). Those were still Brazilian rock times and other musics didn't
have a chance. Fortunately to her, other singers like Marisa Monte were making
the same choice, which dislocated the popular taste during the 1990s to a
re-approximation with Brazilian music. The album also brought "Sonφfera Ilha," a
cheesy hit by the Os Titπs improved in her rendition, and "Caminhoneiro,"
another corny hit by Roberto Carlos that reaffirmed her capacity for creating
sensitive performances of uneven material. Ronaldo Bastos' "Naquela Estaτπo" was
the big hit of the album, but national exposure came with the second album,
Senhas. The title track was included on the soap opera soundtrack for Renascer,
reaching dozens of millions in Brazil. The third album, A Fßbrica do Poema,
brought her compositions and partnerships along with renditions of songs by
established composers such as Chico Buarque. The interpretation of profound
songs like Buarque's "Morro Dois Irmπos" revealed a true MPB artist, not a
performer restricted to the pop idiom. The album also brought the concrete
poetry of Augusto de Campos (who participated on one track). 1996 marked the
beginning of national tours and also performances in Buenos Aires, Argentina.
Calcanhotto recorded the song "Tema de Alice" (PΘricles CavalcΓnti), which was
included on the soundtrack to the film Mil e Uma (Suzana Morais), and "Dona de
Castelo," a nostalgic canτπo by Jards MacalΘ/Waly Salomπo and the theme song of
the 1996 film Doces Poderes (L·cia Murat).
Maritmo was an experimentation where she mixed drum machines, ska, funk,
incidental electronic noise, Olodum-type percussion (maracatu), samples,
synthesizers, an old kitsch Jovem Guarda hit (Roberto Carlos' "Porisso eu Corro
Demais"), dance grooves, and MPB, with the participation of icons Dorival Caymmi
(on "Quem vem pra Beira do Mar"), and the great multiinstrumentalist Hermeto
Pascoal. Her fifth album, the live recorded P·blico (2000), is strongly
MPB-based, where she accompanied herself at the violπo. It included the samba
classic ("E o Mundo nπo se Acabou" by Assis Valente), a poem by the Portuguese
Mßrio de Sß Carneiro (with music by her), and another by Waly Salomπo, a
re-recording of "Versos" (which had been released by Maria BethΓnia of her
classic ┬mbar), and previous hits "Esquadros" (1992), "Cariocas" (1994),
"Vambora" (1998), and "Vamos Comer Caetano" (1998). On this album, she also
re-recorded "Dona de Castelo."
"O Micr≤bio do Samba" is her Tenth album. A samba album, but still with lots of
Adriana feeling
