		Gonzaga's importance as a composer of operettas and hundreds of light classical and popular pieces has given her a permanent place in the pantheon of Brazilian composers.
		The work of her contemporary, Ernesto Nazareth (1863-1934), also had a far-reaching effect on choro; like Gonzaga, he was a classically trained pianist, and his works were composed exclusively for the piano.
		He's honored by the inclusion of his "Remexendo" ("Swinging") and "Chiquinha Gonzaga," along with Paulinho da Viola's jazz-inflected "Sarau para Radamés," which captures the feeling of a typical roda de choro at his home.

	Cliff Korman & The Brazilian Tinge: Migrations
		The way Korman blended his personal experiences with those of Salgado's exhibit and also Chiquinha Gonzaga's music creates the recording we are given here.
		The idea of using Chiquinha Gonzaga's anthem "Abre Alas" as a returning citation in different arrangements serves as a common thread to a variety of themes Korman explores musically: choro, ciranda and dance.
		The interlude "Cavaquinho" serves as a preamble to another Gonzaga piece featured in Migrations, "Corta Jaca." Before playing that number, Korman and (Henrique) Cazes softly set the tone to a magnificent entrance by Curto's accordion in the first part of "Corta Jaca." Accordion and piano then share the rest of the melody.
