Mateus Aleluia - Cinco Sentidos 2010

The singer and composer Mateus Aleluia, born in Cachoeira, Bahia, is the only living representative of the original formation of the musical group "Os Tincoãs", one of the most important black vocal groups in the country in the 70s and 80s.
Selected by the Petrobras Cultural Program 2006/2007, the CD Five Sentidos is an important record of the career of Hallelujah, composed of 11 tracks, almost all of its own.
The repertoire of the work reveals its influences and sources of artistic inspiration, ranging from the Afro-Baroque culture, marked by the strong ties with its ancestry, to the Brazilian indigenous imagination. The Tincoãs is one of the most significant and exuberant groups that this country has ever had. Mateus Aleluia produced a beautiful album, after two decades of near exile in Angola. An album that deserves much more recognition than it has achieved. In fact, one of the best of the decade. revistamovinup.com
