Grupo Corpo: Brazil’s National Modern Dance Company

Art, blog

Grupo Corpo is probably Brazil’s most highly regarded modern dance company. They travel all over the world demonstrating their interpretations and unique choreography. This particular piece is a delightful number that is typical of their casual and whimsical dance style and upbeat and childlike mood. Grupo Corpo is based in Belo Horizone and Sao Paulo and is often playing at one of the large venues in Sao Paulo when they are at home in Brazil. You can often find them with the Sao Paulo Symphony Orchestra.

Brazil’s Best on the Guitar

blog, music

Two of Brazil’s most talented and treasured guitar players often pair up to play together. Armandinho plays the little mandolin-like instrument, called a Cavaquinho (kah-vah-keen-yo), a traditional folk instrument in Brazil, while Yamandu Costa plays the guitar. Together, they volley back and forth with jaw-dropping speed and accuracy in their interpretations of classic Brazilian tunes. These are two musicians that are a joy to watch and to hear. Seek them out if you ever find yourself in Brazil and ready to see a concert.
