	Chico Buarque - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Chico Buarque (full name: Francisco Buarque de Hollanda; born June 19, 1944 in Rio de Janeiro) is a Brazilian singer, composer, dramatist and writer.
		"Chico" came from a both intellectual and privileged family background: his father Sérgio Buarque de Hollanda was a well-known historian and sociologist, and the first name of his lexicographer uncle Aurélio Buarque de Hollanda is as strongly associated with Brazilian Portuguese dictionaries as the name Webster is with American ones.
		Chico's increasing political activity against the Brazilian military dictatorship resulted in his arrest in 1968, and eventual self-exile to Italy in 1969.

	Buarque, Chico
		Chico Buarque is one of the towering figures of Brazilian music, one of the country’s greatest singer songwriters.
		Chico soon became a national sensation, and started to make frequent appearances on television (on Elis Regina/Jair Rodrigues' show) as well as in the popular song festivals.
		Chico then took a huge career chance in 1968 writing and scoring a bleak, existential play Roda Viva that was critical of obsessive fan culture.

	CMT.com : Chico Buarque : Biography (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-07)
		Of the early stars of MPB (musica popular brasileira), Chico Buarque was one of the first to become a certifiable pop star.
		Upon returning to Brazil, Buarque artistic development was greatly enhanced by the friends of his father (the historian Sergio Buarque de Holanda) who were prominent in the early bossa nova movement.
		On a more positive note the rift between Buarque, Veloso and Gil was settled upon their return to Brazil in 1972 and Buarque went on to record with both of them in the mid-70s.

		Buarque himself often tends towards a sexy, low-key approach, and his compositions are some of the most creative in Brazilian pop.
		Buarque himself is in fine vocal form and the arrangements are quite good -- a couple of songs hint at the cheesy production which would later dominate his work, but on the whole this is a very nice record.
		Chico Buarque's official website includes information about all his records, including soundtracks and theatre work, as well as singles ("compactos") and other projects.

		Chico Buarque is a famous Brazilian artist, better known for his music than for his books.
		Chico wrote this book without having visited Budapest, merely with the help of a dictionary and a tourist guide of that city.
		All the same, it is as good as one can be, due to the fact that Buarque worked alongside the translator who did it, in order to help when some things had to be rewritten because "They did not translate".

	Eye - BOOKS: Chico Buarque -- Turbulence - 03.11.93 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-07)
		Written in intense, subjective, paranoid first-person narrative, the book has Buarque's hero, so disassociated from everything that he is beyond bitterness, wander listlessly through a suburban waste- scape littered with degenerate characters and dubious architechtural achievements.
		Buarque's novel is a kind of numbing travelogue through a society stripped of all moral values; his aimless and nameless narrator embarks on a journey without purpose in which every experience further desensitizes him to the robberies, kidnappings, murders and rapes happening around him.
		The main character's schizophrenia is a metaphor for the clash between the upper and lower classes; the menace laced through the book is the constant threat of violence, which almost leads to the complete dissolution of the narrator's personality.

		Buarque replied that he felt that though the director was mostly faithful to his plot, he also felt that Guerra used "his own view" when making the movie.
		Buarque also read from the English-language translation of his novel, which he said he felt "very satisfied with", admitting that the act of translation itself is something incredibly hard to do, something he was unable to do when friends abroad asked him to explain the meaning of his songs.

		This album marked the first solo show by Chico Buarque after the Paratodos tour (1994).
		Buarque's fans will charge him for almost non-existent political references, but he wisely accompanied the times, which are obviously less politicized.
		Complex, hard to sing, rich, and sophisticated, they are the best evidence that Buarque knew how to adapt himself to the times, still making justice to his broad fan base.

		Chico has never been a revolutionary in his music, although it is always of high quality and refinement.

		Buarque was known for his criticism towards the military government.
		However, he was aware that he could not simply voice his opposition in music(some of his songs had been banned by the government) in words, he relied on clever(Caetano Veloso and others did the same) wordplay that escaped censors' scruntiny but was clearly understood by his fans.
		Chico wrote several songs from a woman's point of view(which would later be recorded by divas such as Gal Costa and Maria Bethania).

		Chico Buarque - Vida: Reviews, Track Listing, Audio Clips, and more
		Chico Buarque [+] remains an extremely sensitive poet, telling sagas of women's lost lives in scattered beds ("Vida"), describing an improbable love affair between sea and moon ("Mar E Lua"), trying to convince the former lover of the end of the passion ("Já Passou"), and detailing an artist after the performance ("Bastidores").
		But also remains an exciting sambista, counseling a jealous guy in "Deixe A Menina," opening the doors of imagination ("Fantasia"), or celebrating the dark charms of the "Morena de Angola." The album also has two soundtrack themes: "Eu Te Amo" (written with Tom Jobim [+]) and "Bye Bye Brasil," both themes of the same-named films.

	Rock Paper Scissors - Acoustic Brazil (Putumayo) - Press Release (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-07)
		The CD highlights the delicate side of Brazilian music, the counterpart to the upbeat dance music for which the country is also known.
		Caetano Veloso—who is featured here on a Putumayo CD for the first time (though he has reached superstar status at home and abroad)—was a founding member of the tropicalismo movement, which blended bossa nova, rock, psychedelica, and protest music.
		Chico Buarque—who was criticized for not being political enough in the 1970s—sings here: “I leave behind many enemies because I’ve always been honest.” The more extreme the military dictatorship became in Brazil, the more radical Buarque became, which eventually landed him in jail, a credit he ironically shares with Veloso.
