Product Description

Ernesto Nazareths "Turuna" A Masterclass in Brazilian Tango Melancholy

Composed in 1914, "Turuna" stands as one of Nazareths most emotionally nuanced tangos brasileiros, blending Argentine tangos passion with a distinctly Brazilian saudade. The title itselfpossibly derived from the Quechua word "turuna" (meaning "foreigner" or "wanderer")hints at its themes of longing and displacement. Heres why this overlooked masterpiece warrants deeper attention:

1. Cultural Synthesis: Tango Meets Saudade
Transatlantic Dialogue: While rooted in Argentine tangos habanera rhythm, Nazareth infuses it with:

Choros improvisatory flair (especially in the ornamented melodic lines).
European Romantic harmonies (reminiscent of Schumanns "Träumerei").
Lundus syncopation (an Afro-Brazilian rhythm suggesting movement through sorrow).
Nomadic Spirit: The pieces restless modulations mirror the "turuna" as a musical wanderer between cultures
