Chico Buarque, Brazil, violence, racismAbstract
The musical work of Chico Buarque is known for the interpretive and critical character of Brazil, since its most participatory period of the 1960s and 1970s and today, as an astute chronicler of the ills of our society. It is possible to say that in his work we find a kind of synthesis of the hopes and discouragements of the recent history of Brazil. In this text we intend to analyze the song “As caravanas”, from his last album: Caravanas, from 2017, a historical moment in which the Brazilian population is devastated by a variation of crises: ethics and politics, is collectively suffocated and living in a world with values rooted in authoritarianism, discrimination and violence.
