The 23-year-old started playing for passengers on her one-hour commute
SAO PAULO - Maria Luiza Kaluzny thought that to become a successful violinist she would need to leave her working-class neighborhood on the outskirts of Sao Paulo, Brazil's biggest metropolis, and play classical music for the rich and powerful.
She now performs in frequent rap battles, a form of freestyle music competition where two performers trade boasts, insults and quick-witted wordplay to see who comes out on top. "I thought it would be impossible to have this space to make music with the violin for people from the favela," Kaluzny told Reuters, using the term for the thousands of slums that dot Brazilian cities. "When the door isn't open, we go in and knock it down!"
"I don't need to be a violinist from Brazil's fringes and play the European way, where is that written? I play very well because I studied for many hours, just like an orchestra violinist. I studied for it, so I can very well use it for my culture, to deal with the problems and scenario I live in."
