Samba Hour: Toca Brasil (Play Brazil)! 4:30-5:15
Eric G. Galm (Trinity College)
This workshop enables participants to explore the music and culture of Brazil through a
kinesthetic process. Beginning with a brief introduction to the fundamental fabric of the rhythmic
structure, followed by an introduction to some of the prominent instruments and how they
engage in conversation, the group will then help to perform a samba song in Portuguese and
English and learn how one song can simultaneously function in multiple contexts. Participants
will engage in basic rhythmic call-and-response training, working towards establishing a
collaborative samba rhythm.
