I'd say that Brazilian music is around 75% Galician-Portuguese, in general, with some exceptions, like samba

But what do you guys think?

Good Thread!


That music resembles me some Iberian medieval music and looks like the persons of the comment section agree

Deffinately, I also hear some Galician vibes as well!

Is Fado popular in Brazil? My parents are from south portugal. I always hear people talk about how people from açores and north portugal went to Brazil but never about south portuguese, although I'd assume some went (my great grandfather did)

Not popular at all, the only popular ones are the ones shown in the OP + some more mixed brazilian slyles, like Samba and it's derivatives (Bossa Nova, Pagode, etc)

Fado didn't exist during the Colonial Brazil epoch. It is a posterior phenomena starting in Lisbon in the second half of 19th century in its precocious phase, and later spreading from there to the rest of the country mostly during the 20th century.

Brazilians, Portuguese and Galicians, what do you think of this? Can you see the similarities?
