Ciranda is a folk music from northeastern Brazil that everyone dances in a circle, and is similar to Japanese "Warabe Uta". This is the first album released in 1977 by Lia De Itamaracá, one of the leading singers born on the island of Itamaracá, where Ciranda originated. The album features 8 tracks with Lia's strong and gentle voice over the rhythms played by a brass band including horns and percussion, which are said to have originated from Arabic music. The A-side is a medley format that includes "Quem Me Deu Foi Lia," one of the representative songs loved by many people, including Gilberto Gil. The B-side features songs with rhythmic arrangements, including the danceable "Pai Baracho" and "Coco Verde / Ciranda Feiticeira," which features a prominent rhythm section performance. A record of Brazilian folklore that is sure to please the ear with its richly good old performances and her enchanting voice.
日本のわらべ唄にも似ているという皆が輪になって踊るブラジル北東部の民俗音楽シランダ。本作はシランダ発祥の地イタマラカー島生まれの代表的な歌い手のひとりLia De Itamaracáの77年のファーストアルバム。アラブが起源となっているというホーン、パーカッションらブラス隊の奏でるリズムに力強く優しいLiaの歌声に耳を傾けたい全8曲。A面はGilberto Gilら多くの人に愛される代表曲のひとつ”Quem Me Deu Foi Lia”を含むメドレー形式。B面にはダンサンブルな”Pai Baracho”やリズム隊の演奏が際立った”Coco Verde / Ciranda Feiticeira”を含むリズムアレンジを加えた楽曲を収録。以後もシーンの発展を担ったシランダの名手が残したブラジリアンフォルクローレの名作。
