Jacob Pick Bittencourt - (known as Jacob do Bandolin)

About Jacob do Bandolim

Jacob do Bandolim born Jacob Pick Bittencourt (February 14, 1918 – August 13, 1969) was a Brazilian composer and musician. Born to a Brazilian-Jewish mother and a gentile father in Rio de Janeiro, his stage name means "Mandolin Jacob", referring to his instrument he played. A perfectionist, Jacob was able to achieve with his band Época de Ouro the highest levels of quality. Jacob hated the stereotype of the "disheveled, drunk folk musician" and required commitment and impeccable dress from his musicians who, like himself, all held "day jobs." Jacob worked as a pharmacist, insurance salesman, street vendor, and finally notary public, to support himself while also working "full time" as a musician. In addition to his virtuoso playing, he is famous for his many choro compositions, more than 103 tunes, which range from the lyrical melodies of "Noites Cariocas" ("Carioca Nights"), Receita de Samba and "Dôce de Coco" to the aggressively jazzy "Assanhado", which is reminiscent of bebop. He also researched and attempted to preserve the older choro tradition, as well as that of other Brazilian music styles.

About Choro

Brazilian Choro has roots jazz, and is considered Brazil’s first “urban pop” music. There are over 30 different types of rhythms in Brazilian Music. By presenting the diversity of our rhythms, we hope to encourage diverse musicians, music students, adults, and children to engage in creating music with a dynamic communicative style that is energetic, fun, creative, and very inspiring!

The festival first occurred in August 2015, and it was a great success. Due to this positive reception, we will continue with an annual presentation. The event will provide an opportunity for everyone to learn about one of the oldest Brazilian musical genres, the Choro and the Brazilian Jazz.

Brazilab - Modern Brazilian Popular Music

Brazilab - Modern Brazilian Popular Music
October Playlist online Mid-October

Desde Nueva York, con un ojo puesto en la vanguardia y los oídos conectados con la tradición, aterriza un nuevo espacio en Radio Gladys Palmera. Un programa que viene a cumplir un sueño anhelado durante años: tener un conexión directa y sin escalas con las nuevas novedades discográficas que se están produciendo en Brasil. A los mandos del vuelo, Béco Dranoff, un experimentado piloto que hará del viaje, una travesía en clase VIP. Béco nació en Sao Paulo pero vive desde hace años en Nueva York, donde ha desarrollado una labor de activista cultural de la nueva escena musical brasileña. Entre su nómina de méritos, despunta el haber despegado la carrera de la gran Bebel Gilberto o haber llegado a puerto a decenas de artistas emergentes.

Lo que no es Brazilab:

Brazilab no es un espacio de coworking destinado a emprendedores brasileños.
Brazilab no es un laboratorio farmacéutico de Sao Paulo.

Lo que sí es Brazilab:

Brazilab es una factoría que selecciona las últimas novedades discográficas que se están produciendo en el gigante sudamericano.
Brazilab es un espacio diseñado por uno de los productores más cool y elegantes de la nueva escena brasileña
