Who is the Goian pianist recognized internationally, with a documentary directed by Simone Caetano?

The episode begins with host Adriana Brito posing a quiz about a mystery Goian musician, later revealed as pianist Belquise Spenciere. Enzo de Lisita joins to detail Spenciere's biography, starting from her childhood in Goiás influenced by her grandmother Nhanhá do Couto. At age 13, she performed at the newly inaugurated Palácio das Esmeraldas, invited by Pedro Ludovico and Gersina Borges. She later moved to Rio de Janeiro to study music, blending classical and popular styles. Spenciere played piano on Goiânia's first radio station, Rádio Clube, accompanying singers live and even composing. She was crowned Queen of Students at Liceu de Goiânia and appeared on magazine covers. Professionally, she helped establish the Conservatory of Music, which evolved into the Federal University of Goiás's music school. In the early 1960s, she founded the Orquestra Sinfônica Feminina, gaining coverage in major outlets like O Cruzeiro magazine. Internationally, she toured under the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, recorded for the BBC in London, and gave masterclasses on Brazilian music. The episode then shifts to cinema, announcing two new Brazilian films at Cine Cultura: 'Barba Ensopada de Sangue' by Ali Muritiba, about a man's ancestral search, and 'Ruas da Glória' by Philip Shaw, following a history teacher's involvement with sex workers. A special screening of David Lynch's 'Cidade dos Sonhos' is also noted. For theater, directors Marco Sibeiro and Nena Duarte promote their Easter musical 'Bendito é o que Vem' at Teatro César, featuring 12 songs about Jesus's resurrection. The host concludes by encouraging listeners to tune in weekly for cultural tips and access the podcast on various platforms.
