Grande Poder

  
«Tum Tum Tum by Déa Trancoso was born eternal. The repertoire is unique, universal, of rare beauty and essence. Music runs through time praying in joy, showing, on an impeccable production, the heart of Jequitinhonha. It’ll strike for many, many years within the best Brazilian music analogical albums.»

Déa Trancoso

It all began with a ten year research on the traditions of Vale da Jequitinhonha, Minas Gerais, Brazil. The result was Tum Tum Tum, an album well acclaimed by the critics and nominated to several best record and best singer awards, alongside names such as Maria Bethânia, Alcione and Marisa Monte.

Influenced by violeiros (guitar players), cantadores (singers) and foliões (merrymakers) from Jequitinhonha, Déa Trancoso presents a work based on the mineira tradition of Terno de Catopés from Bocaiúva, a centenary group that accompanied her through a series of shows. Winner of the X Festivale – Popular Culture of Jequitinhonha Festival, Déa Trancoso entered the Brazilian musical scene with her natural voice surprising by its tuning but also by its technical abilities.

Endless scholar (with a degree on journalism and vocal techniques) she studies musical Brazilian roots, addresses to the origins of samba and its connection to the popular music of Congo and Angola, building rhythms both traditional and contemporary. In the words of the musician Ivan Vilela her voice has a “coming out of God knows where” strength and Egberto Gismonti, one of the most ingenious Brazilian composers, considers her voice to be incredibly beautiful and truthful.
   

      
“Este CD me dá a certeza do diamante jubiloso de Diamantina, que, como parte do Vale, aclarou os caminhos assanhados da Déa. Uma beleza inesgotável: Déa Jequitinhonha Trancoso!
As músicas têm o sabor que mais se gosta de saborear, o ritmo que mais se gosta de dançar, o sacolejo que se deve vascolejar até o riso se engraçar. Têm cantoria, melodia, harmonia e ladainha com ternura e meiguice. Têm invento, invenção e achado. Têm mentira com tanta verdade que parece coisa inventada, encantador, parece coisa encantada! “TUM TUM TUM” é muito perigoso porque quando a gente se agarra nele não consegue se soltar nem de noite pra sonhar”
Egberto Gismonti
