Album lore

Raízes Nordestinas, issued in March 1999 by Universal Music Ltda., gathers twenty tracks from Saraiva, a practitioner rooted in Brazilian choro tradition. The album’s repertoire includes titles such as "Foi de lá que eu vim," "Chorando Por Ti," and "O Sacudido Da Baiana," each evoking the northeastern Brazilian spirit that the album’s title promises. Saraiva’s interpretation leans on the delicate interplay characteristic of choro, with a clear nod to regional melodies.Among these, "Recanto Do Saraiva" stands out as a featured selection, embodying the album’s dedication to both preservation and subtle innovation within the genre. Despite modest circulation—evidenced by a scant eighteen last.fm listeners—the record remains a quiet artifact of late-90s Brazilian music, offering a direct line to choro’s enduring lineage through Saraiva’s attentive musicianship.
