Som Forte: February 2009

http://jeremysomforte.blogspot.com/2009_02_01_archive.html

So much Brazilian Music, so little time! Friday, February 27, 2009. The big desfiles of 2009 Carnaval have been decided, and the Blocos are still rolling through the streets. Salgueiro won the Grupo Especial! I'm really, really happy because I really like Salgueiro, and I loved their Enredo and Samba this year. They had a really impressive parade, with an ala of guys playing Maculelê and an ala playing atabaques on rolling stands. I think I read somewhere that they may have been from Timbalada? This also...

So much Brazilian Music, so little time! Tuesday, March 17, 2009. Assiste Globo e mais na rede/Watch Globo and more on the Internet. Quero postar mais nesse blog, mas falto tempo. Eu estava muito ocupado com o meu emprego e tocando e dancando tambem! Começava muitos amizades muitos boms e falava muito Portugues nas semanas passadas. Então, quero lhes dar uma riqueza pra melhorar os seus habilidades com o Portugues tambem. Quem fala Portugues disfruta vida mais! TV Globo on the internet.

Som Forte: October 2008

http://jeremysomforte.blogspot.com/2008_10_01_archive.html

So much Brazilian Music, so little time! Wednesday, October 29, 2008. All the 2009 Sambas are out! Actually, some of them have been out for quite a while now, but that's kinda beside the point. I really love Samba Enredo, there's something about it that really grabs me. It's just fits with the kind of person I am when it comes to music: bigger, louder, more produced/arranged/whatever. I really love Mangueira's Samba this time around (last year it was Mocidade and Salgueiro for me). O branco aqui chegou.

So much Brazilian Music, so little time! Thursday, March 19, 2009. In Brazil, many of the Baterias of the Escolas de Samba have 1 or 2 cymbal players at the very front of the Bateria! I haven't come across this in the US yet, which is very sad. Can anyone teach me to play Samba cymbals? Tuesday, March 17, 2009. Assiste Globo e mais na rede/Watch Globo and more on the Internet.

samba kat's Rio Stories: December 2007

http://riostories.blogspot.com/2007_12_01_archive.html

Samba kat's Rio Stories. Musical updates from Rio de janeiro, Brasil. This year: A short visit for the 2014 Carnaval. Monday, December 31, 2007. Another note on the mini-Mangueira show. It was actually a rather exhausting evening - it was a rough, pushy crowd (rare in Rio, but it had a bunch of young baile-funk types) and I wasn't feeling that well anyway. But I fought my way to the front row anyway, transfixed by a brilliant repinique player who was hiding out in the back (oh! He did SUCH COOL CALLS!

Samba kat's Rio Stories. Musical updates from Rio de janeiro, Brasil. This year: A short visit for the 2014 Carnaval. Friday, November 16, 2007. Brazil is busting out all over! Suddenly Brazil is busting out all over - after so many months of non-Brazilness,. 1 My article about forro in Rio came out in Harvard's Revista magazine this month (my first actual publication to come out of this blog);. Then the two wild cards that appeared this week out of the blue. Why didn't I think of this before? I have a p...
