Background notes
Archive material and source history
Valdir Alves is a bandleader and singer from Caxias do Sul whose music became intertwined with the city's Festa da Uva, a grape harvest festival. In 1980, he released the song 'Festa da Uva,' which caught on locally and eventually became something of an anthem for the event itself.
He grew up in a family with Italian traditions, and his early performances were at local events around Caxias do Sul. The song 'Festa da Uva' seems to have been his breakthrough moment, though the details of his career before and after that are fairly modest.
Alves put out several albums through the 1980s and early 1990s, including 'Canti del Mio Paese' in 1982 and 'Siamo Italiani' in 1991. His music draws from Italian folk traditions but also includes ballads and dance tunes.
