The Welsh Road Library will host a music program open to all ages entitled, Minas, a Brazilian Music Adventure.
Minas introduces students to the country of Brazil through its music, Samba and Bossa Nova. After performing examples of Brazilian music and presenting historic, geographical and educational references, they introduce Brazil’s famous festival Carnaval, demonstrating authentic Brazilian percussion instruments – surdo, tamborim, repinique, agogĂ´, reco-reco, ganzá, pandeiro, and cuĂca. Participation is enhanced by engaging students to sing in Portuguese (the language of Brazil), scat, and play Brazilian samba percussion (instruments supplied). Students learn while being engaged and having fun.
