He wrote more than 125 songs, among them the tango-fado &#8220;\u00c0 Beira-Mar&#8221; (lyrics by Hermes Fontes, 1922), the samba carnavalesco &#8220;Ai, Cabocla Bonita&#8221; (1922), &#8220;Ai, Seu M\u00e9&#8221; (with Careca, success of the Carnival of 1922), and many others.

The modinha is of uncertain origin, but it may have evolved in either Brazil or Portugal. Around the end of 18th Century<sup title=\"This claim needs references to reliable sources from April 2008\">[<em>citation needed<\/em>]<\/sup>, Domingos Caldas Barbosa wrote a series of modinhas that were extremely popular, especially in salons, and so can be termed salon music. The modinha of the late 19th century was sung in the streets or as an outdoor serenade, usually accompanied by flute, guitar, and cavaquinho.The earliest known literary reference to &#8220;Brazilian <em>modinha<\/em>&#8220;, most likely in reference to Barbosa&#8217;s music, was made by Portuguese satirical poet Nicolau Tolentino de Almeida in 1779. One of his characters in a farce from 1786\u2014<em>A rabugem das velhas<\/em> [The old women&#8217;s rage]\u2014 also mentions &#8220;this new <em>modinha<\/em> that&#8217;s been invented now&#8221;, which sends her grandmother into a rage, eulogizing the past.<sup id=\"cite_ref-0\">[1]<\/sup><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Homepage <strong>Wilfried Berk<\/strong>: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.wilfriedberk-clarinet.de\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">http:\/\/www.wilfriedberk-clarinet.de\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p>More posts about <strong>choro<\/strong>: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mandoisland.com\/?tag=choro\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">http:\/\/www.mandoisland.com\/?tag=choro<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Revendo o Passado is a great choro waltz by Freire J\u00fanior.
