Welcome to “Brazilian Groove,” SU’s exploration of the vibrant cultural and musical heritage of one of the most exotic countries on earth. The only Portuguese-speaking country in South America, Brazil has managed to blend many diverse elements into one incredible mix. Brazil is a country richly influenced by the African diaspora, and the series features Afro-Brazilian samba and forró dance classes. Enjoy two special evenings of Brazilian music: the sought-after duo Minas and world-renowned countertenor José Lemos, guitarist Marco Sartor and percussionist Danny Mallon. In addition, explore contemporary Brazil through documentary films and a distinguished faculty lecture series. … pra caramba! Samba DANCE ON THE LAWN Featuring Helena Hill Mondays: September 10, 17 & 24 and October 1 Holloway Hall, Front Lawn, 5 p.m. (Rain Location: Holloway Hall, Great Hall) Samba, an old Brazilian style of dance with many variations, is African in origin. It has been performed as a street dance at Carnival, the pre-Lenten celebration, for almost 100 years. Today, Samba is still very popular in Rio. During Carnival time there are “schools of Samba” involving thousands of elaborately costumed dancers presenting a national theme based on music typical of Brazil and Rio in particular. Forró Featuring Helena Hill Mondays: October 8, 15, 22 & 29 Holloway Hall, Front Lawn, 5 p.m. (Rain Location: Holloway Hall, Great Hall) The Brazilian dance Forró originated in the Northeast of Brazil. Danced to the music of the same name, the movements have a variety of influences: indigenous ritual dances, traditional Dutch and Portuguese rhythms, German folk dance, and African hip movements. The dance is frequently performed at parties and festivals in the Northeast. 2 Minas Featuring Guitarist Orlando Haddad & Pianist Patricia King Thursday, September 13 Red Square, 7 p.m. (Rain Location: Holloway Hall, Great Hall) Minas is one of the most sought-after Brazilian bands in the United States. Minas is built upon the duo’s multiple talents as vocalists, instrumentalists and composers with an impressive grasp of the whole range of Brazilian musical idioms. DISTINGUISHED FACULTY LECTURE SERIES Wednesdays • Holloway Hall, Great Hall, 7 p.m. The Making Of Brazilian National Identity With Helena Hill October 3 Is there such a thing as a Brazilian national identity? Can the diversity of the Brazilian population be captured by one overarching concept of what it means to be a Brazilian? The lecture explores the various perspectives on this issue throughout Brazilian recent history. Novelist Jorge Amado: A Brazilian National Treasure With Keith Brower October 10 Jorge Amado (1912-2001) stands as Brazil’s most famous and most popular novelist. He is, for many, the face of Brazilian literature, particularly internationally. His works are not without controversy, however, and for all his fame, and that of his works, many would suggest that he is not – and some might say, by any stretch – Brazil's best novelist. Brower, professor of modern languages and intercultural studies at SU, discusses Amado’s career and works, and addresses the author’s place in Brazilian literature and culture. Brasília: Building The Future With Emily Story October 17 In the span of just four years (1956 to 1960), Brazil built a new capital in the remote central plains. In this lecture, Story, of SU’s History Department, discusses how the modernist city of Brasília has contributed to Brazilian development and identity during the last half century. Busting the Boom-Bust Theory of Amazonian Development With Jill Caviglia-Harris October 24 Tropical deforestation is a striking form of land cover transformation that has attracted the attention of researchers and the media. Nowhere in the world are the consequences more pronounced than in the Brazilian Amazon, the largest area of contiguous tropical forest on the globe. The boom-bust theory has been put forward to explain the simultaneous decline of the people and ecosystems that has occurred with the recent settlement of this region. This presentation examines evidence that casts doubt on the conventional wisdom of this theory. ■ Office of Cultural Affairs 410-543-6271 BRAZILIAN GROOVE FILM SCREENINGS Mondays Holloway Hall, Great Hall, 7 p.m. ■ Brazil: A Racial Paradise? September 17 In Brazil, executive producer and renowned professor Henry Louis Gates Jr. delves behind the façade of Carnival to discover how this “rainbow nation” is waking up to its legacy as the world’s largest slave economy. ■ Wasteland September 24 & October 1 Filmed over nearly three years, the film follows renowned artist Vik Muniz as he journeys from his home base in Brooklyn to his native Brazil and the world’s largest garbage dump, Jardim Gramacho, located on the outskirts of Rio de Janeiro. There he photographs an eclectic band of “catadores”– self-designated pickers of recyclable materials. Muniz’s initial objective was to “paint” the catadores with garbage. However, his collaboration with these inspiring characters as they recreate photographic images of themselves out of garbage reveals both the dignity and despair of the catadores as they begin to re-imagine their lives. ■ On Wheels Brazil October 8 Countless people in various cities of Brazil make their living as self-employed workers, with no formal job relationship or any kind of social security, driving a parallel economy that currently represents some 40 percent of the country’s gross domestic product. Approximately 15 percent of them use the street as their workplace. The film portrays the daily lives of characters who push, pull or pedal some kind of vehicle to earn their living in Brazil’s city streets. The film establishes a relationship between the wheels’ movement and the inconstancy of life itself, especially for those without stable jobs and who have to create and improvise daily just to survive. ■ Frontline: World IX: The Carbon Hunters October 15 Journey to the Amazon and the remote rainforests of Brazil, where several major American companies are on the hunt for ways to capture an increasingly valuable commodity, carbon, as Congress considers new legislation that would force them to pay for their pollution. Reporter Mark Schapiro visits a number of demonstration projects that help explore the promise and potential pitfalls of this new trade in trees. ■ The Transamazonian Highway: Ecology, Pornography & Trauma With Paula Willoquet-Maricondi October 22 Made during the height of Brazil’s military dictatorship in a shot-on-therun, semi-documentary, semi-fictional McLean Mix Rainforest Installation & Lecture Guerrieri Center, Wicomico Room November 5-6* Installation: 9 a.m.-4 p.m. & 7-9 p.m.; *9 a.m.-4 p.m. only Tuesday, November 6 Lecture: 7 p.m. This portable, self-contained audiovisual-environmental audienceinteractive installation allows up to five participants at a time to instantly create original and beautiful sounds together, over the sultry and ethereal rainforest drone playing in the background. As music is created, a slowly changing surrealistic multiple slide presentation of rainforests from around the world is projected. The creative stations consist of keyboards sampled with actual rainforest sounds recorded by the McLeans in the Brazilian Amazon and other rainforests around the world. Other stations include microphones with artifacts that style, Iracema: Uma Transa Amazonica weaves together two powerful narratives of trauma: the ecological and the social. It follows a truck driver and a local prostitute as they traverse the Amazon in search of a living. Banned by the dictatorship until 1981, this was the first film to capture images of the burning of the Amazon. Using an improvisational and cinéma vérité style, director Jorge Bodansky offers a daring critique of the illegal extraction of exotic hardwood timber, the devastating emergence of the cattle industry, and the ensuing human trade and prostitution. WilloquetMaricondi, professor of media arts at Marist College and editor of Framing the World: Explorations in Ecocriticism and Film (2010), leads discussion of the film, situating it in its cultural, historical, political and artistic contexts. ■ Secrets of the Dead: Lost in the Amazon October 29 Unravel the truth of what happened to famed adventurer Col. Percy Fawcett, who went looking for the Lost City of “Z” in the Amazon in 1925 and disappeared in the jungles of Brazil. Discover surprising finds that are causing experts to re-think the image of a pristine uninhabited Amazon rainforest – a place that before Columbus may have had large populations living in sophisticated towns and cities. can be used by the visitors (bird calls, etc.) and which are then digitally processed through delays, pitchshifting, etc., and an amplified and digitally processed spoke wheel.
