Tropicalia was the ground-breaking movement in 1960's Brazil, led by Gilberto Gil, Caetano Veloso, Tom Ze, and others, that embraced both Brazilian roots music and international sounds. Some of Brazil's most exciting artists today are inspired by the sounds and philosophy of Tropicalia. We'll hear the latest work from Marisa Monte, Marcelo D2, Cidadao Instigado, Bonsucesso Samba Clube, Cibelle, Apollo Nove, and others. Our guest is renowned Brazilian producer Beco Dranoff.
