Nuits d’Afrique : Bianca Rocha au Club Balattou

Fri 14 Jul 2023 • 08:30 pm Música Popular Brasileira
Club Balattou - Montréal 15$
· by Rédaction PAN M 360

Une atmosphère feutrée, tout en langueur. Des lumières tamisées. Un micro sur pied au centre de la scène. Une petite robe noire. Une artiste toute simple. Des cordes indolentes. Puis la voix claire et tout en douceur de Bianca Rocha qui s’élève dans la brume ambiante. La magie opère, les instruments s’animent ; les cuivres, percussions, contrebasse, basse et guitare se mettent au service de la chanteuse. La Música popular brasileira (MPB) de Bianca Rocha, inspirée par les grandes dames de la musique brésilienne comme Rosa Passos et Elza Soares, emprunte aux Bossa nova et Samba sans jamais les imiter, intègre le Jazz sans jamais trop s’y attarder, puise dans les rythmes traditionnels comme le Frevo sans jamais s’apitoyer.

Invitée spéciale : Flàvia Nascimento  – Expressive et généreuse, drôle et tendre à la fois, elle donne un relief particulier à ses compositions originales inspirées tant de la musique afro-brésilienne que de la musique populaire brésilienne.

A warm, dreamy ambiance. Soft lighting. A stand-up mic at the centre of the stage. Languid chords. A simple black dress. And Bianca Rocha’s clear, gentle voice rising up out of the mist. A bona fide artist. Then magic the happens and the instruments start to awaken—the brass, drums, double bass and electric guitar—to accompany the singer. Rocha’s Música popular brasileira, or MPB, inspired by Brazilian music icons like Rosa Passos and Elza Soares, borrows from Bossa Nova and samba without ever imitating them, integrates jazz without ever dwelling on it too much, and draws on traditional rhythms like frevo, without ever overindulging. 

Special guest: Flàvia Nascimento – Expressive and generous, funny and tender all at the same time, she provides a unique texture to her original compositions that are as inspired by Afro-Brazilian rhythms as by popular Brazilian music.
