Roda de Samba workshop
Informations
In Brazil, a "roda de samba" (literally meaning "samba circle") is a celebratory event where people get together to sing, play, dance and share the joy of samba. This music has its roots in more intimate settings than carnival or 'street' samba - in peoples homes, bars, parties, etc - It's infectious, engaging music which creates a warm, welcoming atmosphere and a real sense of togetherness.
In this workshop, we'll be learning a few songs that are popular in the style and how to play some of the percussion instruments that are used to support the singing (pandeiro, tan-tan, rebolo, repique de mao etc.) These are more subtle percussion instruments than those used in larger scale carnival samba. If you've been to our previous "Rio samba" workshops, this is a chance to experience a different side to samba and Brazilian culture.
All levels of musical experience are welcome -
This music truly has something for everyone; from easy to grasp (but very useful) percussion grooves to more complex phrases, calls & variations. Start simple and grow from there - there's always something new to learn in samba!
Learn new musical skills in a friendly atmosphere and join an ever-growing community of Brazilian music lovers here in Glasgow.
