    Brazilian Jive From Samba to Bossa and Rap

    Reaktion Books

    £7.50 OFF!!! That's 50% OFF!!! UK PAPERBACK

    In Brazilian Jive, David Treece uncovers the genius of Brazilian song, both as a sophisticated, articulate art form crafted out of the dialogue between music and language and as a powerfully eloquent expression of the country's social and political history.

    Focusing on the cultural struggles of music-making in Brazil, this book traces their journey from the rise of samba through the bossa nova revolution of the late 1950s to the emergence of rap in the 1990s.
