Roberta Campos' show moves the audience at the 28th Pan-Amazonian Book and Multivoices Fair
The free performance brought together the great hits of the Minas Gerais singer at the Hangar Convention Center in Belém
The Government of Pará, through the State Secretariat of Culture (Secult), promoted on the night of this Tuesday (19) one of the most anticipated moments of the 28th Pan-Amazonian Book and Multivoices Fair: the free show by singer Roberta Campos, held on the main stage of the Hangar Convention Center in Belém. The audience enjoyed an intimate performance, marked by the successes of the Minas Gerais artist and reinterpretations of classics from Brazilian Popular Music.
During the performance, Roberta Campos brought to the audience songs that marked her musical journey, including partnerships and interpretations of names like Nando Reis and Marisa Monte. For many, the night was filled with emotion and reunions.
“I already knew the work of the singer, and I confess that I admire her a lot. I think it’s excellent to bring artists with this musical quality, in addition to the attractions focused on the fair and handicrafts,” highlighted university professor Marley Araújo, who returned to Belém after 20 years and took the opportunity to attend the event.
Saleswoman Sophia Gomes was also moved to hear songs that marked her life. “I really like Roberta Campos' songs, especially 'From January to January', which was part of the soundtrack of my wedding. It’s a beautiful song that talks about love in a special way,” she said.
Recognized as one of the great voices of national music, Roberta Campos has works in soap opera soundtracks and has released award-winning albums, such as Varrendo a Lua and Todo Caminho é Sorte, nominated for the Latin Grammy. For her, participating in the Fair has a special meaning.
“Belém always welcomes me very well. In April I was here to present my show Coisas de Viver and today I return at an even more special moment. Being at such a beautiful event is incredible,” she stated.
The singer also highlighted the importance of the initiative. “Having the opportunity to participate in a Book Fair, in a place that breathes culture, is wonderful and inspiring. I’m sure I will leave here transformed,” she added.
According to the Fair's coordinator, Luciano Gomes, the musical programming seeks to value different styles and generations. “Our proposal is to highlight the diverse voices throughout the event, and Roberta Campos' show honored memories of childhood and youth. We always seek to bring this diversity into the Fair,” he explained.
The program continues until Friday
The 28th Pan-Amazonian Book and Multivoices Fair continues until this Friday (22), at the Hangar Convention Center in Belém. With daily programming from 9 am to 10 pm (entry until 9 pm), the event brings together 120 companies, including publishers, bookstores, and distributors, as well as 70 local businesses – ten more than in the previous edition.
In this edition, the Fair honors Master Damasceno and writer Wanda Monteiro, with seven thematic axes that highlight the plurality of knowledge and experiences of the Amazon. University publishers such as UFPA, Uepa, Unesp, and the Brazilian Association of University Publishers (Abeu) are also confirmed.
