Background notes
Archive material and source history
Sanfonéia formed in Belo Horizonte in the late 1970s, with Ailton Reis as their lead vocalist. Their self-titled debut album from 1981 included 'Anjo Malandrinho,' a song that became widely known in Brazil. The band's lyrics often touched on social issues, which sometimes drew criticism during that period.
Their music blended traditional Brazilian styles like samba and forró with rock elements. Beyond 'Anjo Malandrinho,' they recorded songs such as 'Chovendo Sinceridade' and 'Fuxico.' The group's lineup included musicians like accordionist Nonato Lima and keyboardist Fernando Araújo.
Sanfonéia released several albums through the 1980s and 1990s, including 'Do Bem' in 1985 and 'Sanfonia Elétrica' in 1995. Their work maintained a focus on social themes while incorporating various musical influences.
