Zeca Pagodinho energizes crowd at Global Alliance Festival's second night
Stage set at Pier Mauá, between Museu do Amanhã and Museu de Arte do Rio (MAR) The samba rhythm set the tone for the second night of the Global Alliance Festival Against Hunger and Poverty, themed 'The Show Must Go On.' The musical direction was led by Pretinho da Serrinha, who took the stage at 7 p.m. to introduce Zeca Pagodinho. Pagodinho kicked off the performances with hits like "Verdade," "Ser humano," "Coração em Desalinho," and "Deixa a vida me levar," prompting the audience to sing along in a large chorus. G20 in Rio: See how traffic and commerce will be during the mega-holiday in the capital Fun in Rio: 20 paired activities for the G20 holiday weekend in Rio de Janeiro Following Zeca Pagodinho, Bahia's own Mariene de Castro took the microphone, performing "Canto das três raças," one of Clara Nunes' greatest hits, keeping the energy high after Pagodinho's set. The lineup for the night also included Maria Rita, Teresa Cristina, and Roberta Sá, among others. Unlike the first night, there were no speeches from officials at the start of the performances, which began as scheduled at 7 p.m. The audience was larger than the previous evening. The warm-up started with a dance class shortly after 5 p.m., though many attendees arrived much earlier. Oswaldo and Silva Sobral, aged 44 and 42, respectively, arrived at 2 p.m. from Olaria, in the North Zone, with their daughters Bruna, 15, Ana, 8, and Maitê, 5. They bought snacks in advance to sustain the girls through the shows. They were particularly excited about Maria Rita's performance. — It will be our first chance to see her live — said the physics teacher, who found a spot on the grass near the stage to sit with his family. Pharmacist João Pedro Mello, 25, and architect Elias Rust, 33, arrived shortly after 5 p.m., also seeking a spot on the grass alongside the stage. The pair was eager for Zeca Pagodinho's show. — I've never seen him perform live, and I don't have a favorite song. Whatever he sings will be great. The stage was set up at Pier Mauá, between Museu do Amanhã and Museu de Arte do Rio (MAR). The entire area was fenced off and required security checks for entry. Over 20 portable restrooms were available in the concert area, with others spread along the Olympic Boulevard. The festival concludes this Saturday with a scheduled appearance by President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva. The final night of musical acts includes Alceu Valença, Maria Gadú, Ney Matogrosso, Kleber Lucas, Jovem Dionísio, Jaloo, Lukinhas, Romero Ferro, Tássia Reis, and Jota.Pê, who recently won three Latin Grammy awards: Best Brazilian Popular Music/Agro Music Album, Best Sound Engineering, and Best Portuguese Language Song.
