Chico Buarque is a Brazilian singer-songwriter, known for his sophisticated samba and bossa nova compositions. He emerged in the late 1960s as a key figure in the Tropicália movement, though his work often stood apart from its more experimental tendencies. The 2011 album "Chico" arrived late in his career, following a period of relative quiet and ahead of further musical and theatrical projects.
