Description

On September 15, Tuesday, at 7:00 PM, the Orquestra Petrobras Sinfônica performs at Theatro Municipal do Rio de Janeiro in a concert dedicated to contemporary Brazilian music and reflection on memory, identity, and the indigenous peoples of Brazil. Conducted by Felipe Prazeres, the program centers on the work Réquiem Guaraní-Kaíová, by Cyro Maurício Delvizio, with a libretto by Gabriel Neves Camargo.

Conceived as a tribute to the Guaraní-Kaíová and all native Brazilian peoples, the Requiem dialogues with the tradition of Western sacred music while incorporating cultural, poetic, and symbolic references related to the indigenous populations. The work proposes a space for listening and reflection, using the expressive power of the orchestra to address themes such as loss, resistance, ancestry, and human dignity.
More than a concert, the performance invites the audience to a deep and contemporary musical experience, in which concert music becomes an instrument of memory and dialogue with the Brazilian reality.
