BaianaSystem is a musical project aimed at spreading and exploring new possibilities through the sounds of Guitarra Baiana. This singular electric guitar - created in Bahia in the forties - was responsible for the creation of Trio Eletrico (a big moving sound system). It was also responsible for an instrumental language of the electric guitar which you will find in the interpretation of frevos, choros and several other musical styles that got new shape from the richness of the sound of this instrument. The purpose of the project is to think about the channel of promotion and consolidation for the Guitarra Baiana (the trio eletrico);to perceive it as a special kind of Sound System (publisher of Dub) and to develop new ways of applying and relating to it. It also offers the opportunity to explore new possibilities of sounds with the Guitarra Baiana as well as investigating the interaction with the production of a rhythmic base. The ‘mixing’ of language and philosophy and the creation of a new musical arrangement through developing an already existing one are the challenges of the Baiana System.
