Brazilian Popular Music, or MAsica Popular Brasileira (MPB),
developed in the mid 1960s as a response to the re-thinking of
Brazilian national identity following the establishment of the
post-1964 military regime. A leading figure in MPB at this time was
Caetano Veloso, and it is his music and its reception that form the
focus of this book. A leader of the Tropicalist movement, Veloso
sought to initiate a critical debate on Brazilian Popular Music and
the political and ideological foundations which underpinned its
aesthetic. Lorraine Leu examines Veloso's musical and vocal styles,
revealing the ways in which they play with traditional expectations
between the performer and listener, and argues that they represent
an important response to the severe censorship and repression of
the military regime.
