Roberto Carlos, a criticism and a question: why do your musicians play with the scores?

Roberto Carlos, a criticism and a question: why do your musicians play with the scores?


Affectionate and humorous, the singer said on the show that he never reveals who inspired him to make “Sua Estupidez,” something biographer Paulo Cesar de Araújo has already revealed.

Roberto Carlos put on a great show at the opening of his new tour on the night of Wednesday 27th, at Vibra São Paulo. His voice travels alternative paths full of freshness in already solid songs like Details And How are you?balances the tears in the mother’s memories in Mrs. Laura and reaches the highest point horse ridingwith an extended arrangement by Eduardo Lages which makes it monumental and which his biographer, Paulo César de Araújo, compares to the effect of Live and let die in Paul McCartney’s repertoire. “It’s great and never leaves your repertoire.” There is a lot to be said for Roberto, good and not so good, but not that he was forgetting the lyrics, except for a two-second moment, gruffly or treating his audience with impatience.

He laughed and tenderly responded to even the worst of his audience – the one who gets to create virals on his social networks by filming the show while shouting “Roberto, take me!”. After hearing one of the many “I love you” cut the song Yet, he even went so far as to do something he rarely does, replying with an almost adolescent “me too” even though he knew the risk of opening a dangerous gate when he does. Other fans may be encouraged to seek the same spotlight and, therefore, it goes downhill. But Roberto followed him to the end, focused and just asking, with a warning laugh, that the people running to gargle “shut up” while he sang. How big is my love for you. He also referred to the case of “cala a b …, p …” gracefully at the start of the show. “When I get angry, even Juma doesn’t hold back.” It was a joke and everyone was laughing.

Before singing Your Stupidity, I said what I said earlier. “For chivalry and ethics, I’ll never be able to tell who I made this song for.” But Paulo Cesar de Araújo addressed the subject in his biographies on the artist and revealed the inspiring muse. It would be Nice, his first wife, who died in 1990. Paulo reproduces her in the book Yet a phrase of the singer that says: “‘I woke up a little tired of everything, of the useless things that become important for those who do not understand anything about the value of feelings. Explicitly mention the name of the then wife.” The biographer understands that Nice thus became not only the inspiring muse of exalted romantic verses of songs, but also How big is my love for you“but also problematic themes, in which the other makes claims, many claims, and in an aggressive tone as in the verses ‘My good, my good / Use your intelligence only once ..'”

Speaking of RC 9, the band accompanying Roberto, perhaps another biography is worth. There is a lot of good history of these well-behaved and immutable musicians behind the singer, producing one of the lowest and most linear sound settings in the history of a Brazilian artist. Nothing gets out of hand, there is no ticket out of place and everyone behaves uniformly seated and dressed. With 14 musicians in all (nine officers plus five in the horn section), the group emulates the big bands of Frank Sinatra’s early years, a break with Roberto, and this could answer the question that perhaps it’s time to ask: why so well musicians who played songs like Details, Appearance And Jesus Christ do you need to read sheet music all the time?
