   About Taquinho Noronha
  Cover conceived by Taquinho Noronha and designed by Cláudio Henriques.

It´s a real pleasure to let all my worldwide friends know that my so awaited album Nas Quebradas do Sertao has just been released.
Hope you like the four songs I've picked out.
A fraternal musical embrace from Taquinho Noronha.

Bio:
Born a country boy on a little farm among the mountains in Lagoa Formosa in the western region of Minas Gerais, we may say that Taquinho Noronha actually rose from nothing; as he had, as a child, to face very hard work in the cotton, corn, beans, and rice fields for a living. How he managed to turn from a poor country boy into a teacher of English and musician is a story really worthy telling. Always and forever an apprentice he loves to play his 10-string acoustic guitar, sing, learn and compose new tunes, write and read poetry; he still finds time to research folclorical themes such as those concerning to "nursery rhymes", revisit, parody, and even intertextualize musical ideas in a conscious, intentional and wise manner. On his first CD, he embodies and gives life to a very, comical, foulmouthed and controversial character, "Mãe Maroca", an old, crazy, optimistic, lady of the road. She hands out her cards and pleases us all with her music, boldness, determination, sarcasm, and forwardness (very unusual for a lady born in the wilds). When his independent CD "Essa Velha Coruja Que Tudo Vê" was released in 2000 caused self-awakenings and certainly a lot of controversy, for its occasional "nasty words" in a few passages in the lyrics, just wonder!

É um prazer imenso anunciar para meus amigos do mundo inteiro que meu tão esperado álbum "Nas quebradas do sertão" acaba de ser lançado.
Espero que vocês gostem das 4 canções que selecionei do CD.
Um abraço fraterno do Taquinho Noronha.

Bio:
Nascido em uma pequena fazenda circundada por montanhas, em Lagoa Formosa no oeste de Minas Gerais, podemos dizer que Taquinho Noronha na verdade surgiu do nada, pois ele teve que trabalhar duro, quando criança, nos campos de algodão, milho, feijão e arroz para sobreviver. Como ele conseguiu transformar-se de um menino pobre do campo em professor de inglês e músico é uma história digna de se contar. Sempre um aprendiz, ele adora tocar sua viola de 10 cordas, cantar, aprender e compor novas melodias, escrever e ler poesias; e ainda encontra tempo para pesquisar temas folclóricos referentes a "canções infantis", revisitar, parodiar e até mesmo intertextualizar idéias musicais em uma maneira consciente, intencional e inteligente. Em seu primeiro CD, Taquinho incorpora e dá vida a uma personagem bastante teatral, cômica e controversa, "Mãe Maroca", uma velha senhora louca, otimista e dama da estrada. "Ela" nos diverte com sua música, coragem, determinação, sarcasmo e vanguardismo. Seu CD independente "Essa Velha Coruja Que Tudo Vê" quando foi lançado em 2000, causou impacto e surpresa por suas ousadas e "picantes" palavras.

Dear Taquinho,
Your work is superb, bordering on sublime. It is of a kind and a calibre to make other artists feel the thrilling thrust of a pride-busting humility which can only make them justifiably and properly proud. I am awed and envious - but not at all jealous. I feel about you as Arthur F. Bentley and John Dewey felt about each other. You are my esteemed colleague and I wish you more success - because your success is mine - ours! You are a diligent and loyal servant of the royal muse - a natural lyrico-musical aristocrat who through a concerted and conscientious effort has been able to make the song angels very, very happy! The sincerity of Satie! The vigor of Van Gogh! Words fail me! Thank you for the tremendous beauty your art supplies to combat dreaded drabness. You are as delightful to hear as Henri Rousseau is to see! My words may fail me, but your songs don't!
Respectfully Yours,
Rambling Raymond Rambert
