Msica Brazilian Popular



Edson Silva the heading of the article is aluso to the one music of the Chico supposedly composed Buarque for a president of Brazil during the Military dictatorship. In it Chico would make reference to reference the fact of the son of the agent chief executive to defy the father (general) and to like its musics. The composer would have tascado: you do not like me, but its son likes ‘ ‘ I use to advantage the repercussion in the media on the championship of the School of Kiss-Flower Samba with the plot in homage to the singer and composer Roberto Carlos to cite ticket lived in a radio sender who I worked at the beginning of the journalistic career. We were university, we fought for Direct elections Already and we almost did not conform in them with exclusively foreign programming that in the senders, mainly in the FM. For my satisfaction, I started to work almost in dedicated radio AM that exclusively to the reporters, later I was to compose team of journalism of a FM, that had Msica Brazilian Popular (MPB) in the totality of the programming.

Another time, in day of failed Brazilian general strike, I made the programming all of protest, with right the Geraldo Vandr and initiating the program with ‘ ‘ The Day where the land parou’ ‘ , of Raul. But this is another history.
