Brazilian Portuguese and cultural connections in Tel Aviv
Brazilian music and movement
Brazilian repertoire has a documented place in the city’s concert programming. The Latino-America Festival programme for 19-21 February 2026, at the Tel Aviv Museum of Art, listed both Brazil Pais Tropical, a samba celebration, and a tribute to Jobim and João Gilberto. For an optional listening project, choose a song by one of those musicians, note the words you recognise, then compare your notes with the lyrics.
There is also a specific connection with Salvador, Bahia: Semente do Jogo de Angola’s own history dates its Tel Aviv activity to August 2011. It traces the group’s founding to Mestre Jogo de Dentro in Salvador in 1990, with the aim of preserving the Capoeira Angola tradition passed on by Mestre João Pequeno. Reading that lineage connects the practice with named teachers and places in Brazil.
Books, film and design across Portuguese-speaking cultures
The World Portuguese Language Day programme for 10 May 2024 at Tel Aviv Cinematheque was a joint initiative of the embassies of Angola, Brazil and Portugal. Its announced programme included a talk on Portuguese as a heritage language, six episodes of Os Herdeiros de Saramago and a display of books from the three countries. This provides a useful reading-project prompt: choose a writer from each country and explore how each describes family, place or belonging.
Portuguese fiction also featured in the European Literature Night programme for 13 December 2023 at Liebling Haus. Teolinda Gersão represented Portugal in an edition devoted to women’s voices, with stories scheduled to be read by Israeli actresses. Camões’s event page includes a short passage from Um casaco de raposa vermelha: a brief text for noticing how a writer describes a character’s wishes and self-image.
For a Cape Verdean connection, the 2022 Docaviv announcement for Cesária Évora listed screenings on 28 and 31 May and a special session at the Tel Aviv Museum of Art on 5 June. Ana Sofia Fonseca’s documentary, made in Portugal, France and Cabo Verde, explores the Cape Verdean singer’s life through archive material and testimony. It offers a musician to investigate further; check the language of an individual recording before choosing it for Portuguese listening practice.
Visual culture supplies another starting point. Tel Aviv University’s Central Library was the announced venue for Azulejo Português. Diálogos Contemporâneos, 1-16 December 2016. Its 21 panels traced Portuguese tile art from the sixteenth century to the exhibition’s present, covering techniques, colours, forms and uses. Inspired by that theme, try describing a tile pattern in Portuguese using colour, shape and position vocabulary.
