In Focus: Gal Costa
Rio de Janeiro, 14.05.21
Focus on Gal Costa
One of the brightest torchbearers of Brazil's Tropicália movement, vocalist Gal Costa has become a longstanding icon of Brazil's musical canon. Since the early 1960s, Costa has worked with many other giants in Brazilian music, including Gilberto Gil aand Caetano Veloso.
This In Focus picks out some of Gal Costa's finest moments, an hour long melange of sunny psychedelia, soul, and Brazilian pop.
