Noel Rosa: The Songwriters
Playlist - 14 Songs
By the time of his death in 1937 at the age of 26, Noel Rosa had laid the groundwork for Brazil's musical revolution. Infusing the Afro-Brazilian rhythms of samba with witty urbanity and social critiques, Rosa modernized the song form. From bossa nova's João Gilberto and Antonio Carlos Jobim to Tropicália's Caetano Veloso and Gilberto Gil, these artists all covered Rosa's formidable catalog.
