Background notes
Archive material and source history
Carlos Tizuka was a Brazilian singer and songwriter from Rio de Janeiro, born in 1949. His music worked with samba rhythms, sometimes blending in bossa nova and Afro-Brazilian elements. He recorded songs like 'A festa de Deus' in 1978, which drew from the Círio de Nazaré pilgrimage in Belém do Pará.
His lyrics often addressed social themes like racial inequality and poverty, which resonated with some listeners and drew criticism from others. The 1982 album 'O Canto das Águas' touched on environmental concerns, while 1996's 'Raízes do Samba' looked back at the genre's origins.
Tizuka worked with various musicians over time, including guitarist Paulinho da Viola, arranger Dori Caymmi, and percussionist Ruy Faria. Other songs in his catalog include 'Apaixonados' and 'Louvar ao Rei'.
