Samba is the sound of Brazil.it was originally the music of African slaves and its rhythms are said to speak to the spirits of African gods.The Rio Carnival,the biggest street party on the planet,dates back to 1723 as a Christian festival to relax and have fun before the stricter period of Lent-a period of discipline similar to our own ‘Khao Pansa’.It is of course,an opportunity for Samba schools to compere against each other.
Advantage and crazy supporters maybe Brazil will make it an unbeatable sixth trophy this year.Who are you cheering?
