Heitor Villa-Lobos's Bachianas Brasileiras demonstrates how the
composer achieved his own Brazilian neoclassical style in a group
of works, nine suites in total, that is arguably one of the best
examples of homage to J.S. Bach's music in the twentieth century.
In this book, the corpus of Bachianas Brasileiras is contextualised
and critically examined according to its structure and intertextual
aspects, as well as its relationship to Bach's music, Brazilian
popular music, and other works by contemporaries of Villa Lobos. A
range of musical examples illustrate instances of the selected
topics in the works, encompassing urban Brazilian popular music
such as the choro, Brazilian northeast and afro rhythms, and
citation of folkloric melodies. Dudeque's comprehensive examination
of the Bachianas Brasileiras will be invaluable for scholars and
researchers of music theory and analysis.
