Full details

Synopsis If you wish to attend all the sessions in this cycle, you can purchase the pack for the 7 sessions here. 7 Figures in the Renewal of Portuguese Popular Music (1958-1979) by David Ferreira Even though their first records would only be released in the first half of the following decade, a 'New Portuguese Song' was born in the hope kindled by Humberto Delgado's campaign in 1958. New directions, revealed by the courage and invention of José Afonso (1929, 1987), were explored in diverse and highly personal ways by a generation of younger singer-songwriters born between 1942 and 1948. From the new Coimbra ballad to the inevitable impact of Anglo-Saxon novelties, there was a rediscovery of traditional music from here and from the old Portuguese colonies, in songs in which the word and the will to change were central.

Sinopse Se pretender assistir a todas as sessões deste ciclo, pode adquirir o pack para as 7 sessões aqui. 7 Vultos na Renovação da Música Popular Portuguesa (1958-1979) por David Ferreira Mesmo que os seus primeiros discos só fossem publicados na primeira metade da década seguinte, uma «Nova Canção Portuguesa» nasceu na esperança acendida pela campanha de Humberto Delgado em 1958. Novos rumos, revelados pela coragem e invenção de José Afonso (1929, 1987), foram explorados de formas diversas e muito personalizados por uma geração de cantautores mais novos, nascidos entre 1942 e 1948. Da nova Balada de Coimbra até ao inevitável impacto das novidades anglo-saxónicas, assistiu-se à redescoberta da música tradicional de cá e das antigas colónias portuguesas, em canções onde foram centrais a palavra e a vontade de mudar.
