Editor's note

A Brazilian Catholic music group from Cachoeira Paulista

Their songs blend traditional hymns with charismatic worship, focusing on devotion to Mary.

For a sense of their core, listen to 'Quem É Esta Que Avança' or the title track from 'Ofício da Imaculada Conceição'. It's all right there.

Canção Nova's music came out of the Catholic Charismatic Renewal in late-1970s Brazil, giving voice to a modern, emotional style of worship that wasn't always welcomed in traditional circles. Songs like 'Quem É Esta Que Avança' are direct Marian prayers set to melody. Their 2000 album 'Ofício da Imaculada Conceição' became a touchstone for many listeners, and they've built a media presence around their community ever since.

They started in 1978 as a group of young people making music together. Their first album came out in 1984, and they've released over thirty since, with their sound anchored in songs about the Virgin Mary and contemporary worship.

Archive material and source history

Canção Nova began in 1978 when a group of young people in Cachoeira Paulista, Brazil, started making music together as part of the Catholic Charismatic Renewal. Their sound drew from traditional Catholic hymns and contemporary Christian worship, and they focused on songs about the Virgin Mary, like 'Maria Nossa Mãe' and 'Quem É Esta Que Avança'.

Their 2000 album 'Ofício da Imaculada Conceição' became particularly well-known, featuring the title track that many listeners associate with the group. Other songs in their catalog include 'Sou Tua Casa' and 'Cordeiro de Deus'. They've released more than thirty albums since their first in 1984.

Early on, some traditional Catholic circles questioned their modern, charismatic style, but they developed a following, especially among younger people. The group has maintained a media presence through television and radio outlets connected to their community.
