The repertoire still includes other classics from the Northeast Brazilian region, such as Baião, O Canto da Ema, Sabiá, Xote das Meninas and Pagode Russo, which sounds as an affirmation of his artistic identity: the music he keeps alive, preserving the tradition of the deepest of a continental country.
