Constellation: an air and musical ride through the waves of the radio

In the Estadão Color program, we made a wonderful trip to the universe for music and aviation. Before you invite you to travel on the radio’s sound, I ask you to read this text that talks about nostalgia.

The anthem in the city of Rio de Janeiro is called “Wonderful City”, a march consisting of André Filho and arranged by Silva Sobreira for the 1935 carnival. This adjective for the city was given by author Maranhão Coelho Neto because of the natural beauty of this place that seems to have been chosen by God to be the most beautiful among all. In the 1960s, March of André was “official” as a hymn. If the river is beautiful to see today, imagine in 1955. But why 1955?

It is that August 2 of the same year, that is, 60 years ago, the world became less for Cariocas. At that date, last, the largest Brazilian airline, a new route between Rio and New York opened with its new acquisition, Super Constellation Gplanet, the most modern aircraft of all ever built. Prior to the constellation, a journey consumed between the South American continent and the United States 72 hours and several scales. With the new aircraft, travel time falls to 20 hours with scales in Belém, Trinidad – Tobago, Dominican Republic to end in “Big Apple”.

This part of the story of commercial aviation became the theme of a game music show in São Paulo whose name is Constellation – a musical trip to the 1950s. Written by Claudio Magnavita is the piece in the Copacabana area in 1955.

It was a phase where Rio, still the capital of the Republic, remained a charming city of natural beauty that marveled the eyes of international celebrities. Actor Jarbas Home de Mello – Head of the Show – inform that the plot depicts a planning trip from a 20 -year -old girl who wins a national radio competition for the first flight of Super Constellation G. The scenario goes back to the Copacabana neighborhood where this girl is lying with her mother and Mosin. “The conflict in history lies in the fact that this girl takes a trip to New York and opens her eyes to the world in the 1950s, or just chooses a future spouse,” explains the director and emphasized that successful songs during these golden years were integrated into the game and played by the actors themselves according to the situation and events.

Loockheed -plane, Super Constellation G, began luxury trips of lasting. “The Technical Advances That Made It Possible to Shorten The Duration of a Trip Between Rio and New York Were the Four 18 -cylinder Engines and Mechanical Fuel Injection, as well as a Power of 3,400 Horsepower, the Lays Command Obtain Forms lasting rides, noting that the constellation was an aircraft with many aboles as spacious as spacious as spacious. Tables that allowed you to play cards during the trip. It was also the first plane with large lying armchairs in the “first class” and in some cases also with private order booths, reminds the master Volpin, and added that a specially employed chef prepared dishes on land to be served to passengers during the flight with an electric oven heating. At current prices, a Rio – New York ticket at Constellation would cost about $ 9,000.

Today, a plan trip on the same route only takes 8 hours. During the game constellation – a musical trip to the 1950s, goes the protagonist, Regina Lúcia, who decides on the trip, along with Jorginho Guinle, the famous socialite and the playboy at that time.
