2nd Anniversary Mash-Up Special
To celebrate 2 years of the Sonoridade online radio program, host and producer Béco Dranoff chose one song from each of the previous 23 shows to paint a broad panorama of contemporary Brazilian music. This is an extended 2 hour program ranging from the ultra-modern to the ultra-classic, futuristic and folkloric sounds co-existing, just as it currently happens in Brazilian culture as a whole. The third year of Sonoridade promises to be a great one with the addition of special shows with interviews and live online events streamed via ARTonAIR.org. Happy Birthday Sonoridade!
