Largest representative of northeastern popular music, Luiz Gonzaga decisively interfered in the trajectory of Brazilian music by introducing the rhythms of the sertão and northeast to the national scene - tunes, xotes, shamans, baiões, xaxados, marchinhas, emboladas.
By rediscovering his musical roots, he helped to shape the northeastern identity in Brazil's imagination, giving the accordion of waltzes and tangos, from the 1940s onwards, a new musicality. Then, as an accordion, the instrument acquired a new personality.
In his obstinate search for country essence, Luiz Gonzaga found in the archives of memory the musical instruments to compose a different orchestration, with the accent of his land, creating the first trio of accordion, zabumba and triangle.
In the clothing of the cangaceiros and cowboys he found his aesthetic personality.
Its influence cannot be measured.
It is the musical and imagetic translation of the northeastern soul itself definitely inscribed in the Brazilian scene.
