E-mail - [email protected] Instagram - rodrigoteodoro7About the Music:This style is music from the northeast of Brazil, more specifically from Ceará, Maranhão, and Bahia, Baião is derived from a folk dance (bumba-meu-boi), and emerged as a musical style in the 40's. The Baião melodies are usually in the mixolydian and lydian b7 modes. It's written in 4/4 but you can find also the use of binary meters, 2/4 or 2/2.The harmonies are quite simple with much use of pedal tones in the bass.The instrumentation is based on "Sanfonia", piccolo, flute and guitar. In the rhythm section we find the use of "Zabumba" (a low tom played with a sharp stick) and a triangle.
