Description
Summary:Originally published in French as a chapter of a book, this article “The musical world of Gilberto Gil” reconstructs the trajectory of one of the most celebrate Brazilian musicians. Tropicalism and the search for the “universal sound”; the forced exile and the making of conscience towards racial issue; the “discovery” of Africa in the after-exile and the first hits beyond Brazil, as well as the acclaim in the international scenario and the aftermost mandate as Ministry of Culture in Lula’s administration, these elements will be featured in the analysis by constituting fundamental parts of a process that makes Gilberto Gil a political persona and a important cultural mediator in the context of mundialization.
