Events

I've posted a lot of possible rehearsals. Please respond to them all, and we'll cancel the ones that don't work. Also let us know what drums you can bring, so we can arrange for gear.

Jorge Alabe 's Grupo Samba Rio will be performing at the first annual Rhythmix World Music & Dance Series in Alameda.

Grupo Samba Rio, founded by master Brazilian drummer Jorge Alabe, is dedicated to playing traditional samba from Rio de Janeiro. Joining the dynamic samba drum presentation will be colorful passistas, dancers in the style of the Escolas de Samba in Rio. This exciting show also features maculelê, capoeira, and pagode, the informal samba played in the bars and backyards of Rio, and special guest musicians Beicola, Urubu, and Macarrinha.
