1. I’ve heard Professor Eisenmann speak a bit about the new interpretations or approaches to European ballroom music that led to the development of Brazilian music as we knew it early on. Take hip hop as another example – deriving from a lack of access to instruments in inner-cities, people began utilizing things like turntables and finding new ways to manipulate instruments to cultivate the hip hop sound. Were there new instruments or innovations to instruments that furthered this development?
2. Orfeu Negru is considered an iconic film and one of the reasons is because it was the soundtrack made by Antonio Carlos Jobim that would bring bossa nova to international popularity, putting on spotlight on the music of Brazil. What other films or popular culture moments brought international attention to brazilian music?
Making a revision for clarity in question 1: Were there new instruments or innovations to instruments that furthered the development and evolution of Brazillian music.
