School of Samba
An interactive musical program for young and old alike
Designed for 10-100 participants, the School of Samba is a quick, fast-paced outdoor play-along activity or as an intensive workshop for smaller groups.
After the audience is divided up into respective instrumental groups, an introduction to the instruments and to the most important basic rhythms is given. Before long, the quickfire exchange between the groups unfolds into an explosive samba batucada.
MMM provides the following instruments for use: Giant rattles, tambourines, clicking dowels (Claves), bells, tin-can tambourines, triangles, drums, ratchets, surdos (bass drums).
If requested, the highly skilled samba musicians of the Latin Jazz band Evora can be present at the workshop as well to offer their assistance.
