Context
Nossos Momentos had premiered at Canecão in 1982, directed by Bibi Ferreira. In May 1984, Bethânia takes that phase to Teatro Ópera, in Buenos Aires. The Argentine run presents the show as a meeting of songs and readings, with musical direction credited to Gilberto Gil.
Grito de Alerta, Explode Coração and Sangrando appear early in the program. The sequence moves through Nossos Momentos, Olhos nos Olhos and Rosa dos Ventos, before blocks that bring together samba, song and poetry. Cântico Negro has a passage of its own; the ending gathers Carcará, Viramundo and the return of O Que É, O Que É?.
The May 24 recording remains in the Evangelina Maffei Archive and is later digitized and restored. The upload recovers the Argentine performance with its own particular pacing. Its circulation as a document preserves a stage of the international run that goes beyond the best-known commercial releases.
