Composed by Jean-Maurice Mourat. Ensemble License / Academic Use Score. Les Productions d'OZ - Digital #DZ-4386-EX. Published by Les Productions d'OZ - Digital (ZZ.DZ-4386-EX).The word chôro, also called chorinho, comes from the Portuguese verb "chôrar": lamentation, a genre of popular and instrumental music, which emerged in the 19th century in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. It designates a kind of collective improvisation, of a sentimental character
The "chôro" would take its name from the "chôries", small groups of Brazilian musicians, who lived by performing with their guitars and percussions, in the Brazilian countryside, at the end of the 19th century.
At the beginning of the 20th century, this folk style entered classical music with the Brazilian H. Villa-Lobos, one of the great composers of this century to introduce the chôro into his work.
The chôro has a sometimes fast rhythm and rather joyful tones despite its name.
Le mot chôro, également appelé chorinho, est issu du verbe portuguais «chôrar» : lamentation, un genre de musique populaire et instrumentale, ayant émergé au XIXe siècle à Rio de Janeiro, au Brésil. Il désigne une sorte d’improvisation collective, de caractère sentimental
Le «chôro» tirerait son nom des «chôries», petites formations de musiciens brésiliens, qui vivaient en se produisant avec leurs guitares et percussions, dans la campagne brésilienne,sur la fin du XIXe siècle.
Au début du XXe siècle, ce style folklorique entrait dans la musique classique avec le brésilien H. Villa-Lobos, l’un des grands compositeurs de ce siècle à introduire le chôro dans son œuvre.
Le chôro a un rythme parfois rapide et des tonalités plutôt joyeuses malgré son nom.
