*Also known as Tropicalismo, the Tropicália was a groundbreaking Brazilian artistic movement fusing Brazilian and African rhythms with elements of British and American psychedelia and pop rock. It bridged the gap between the popular and the avant-garde while embracing both Brazilian traditions and foreign influences. Tropicália extended beyond music and encompassed captivating works in film, theater, and poetry.*
