Carnival in Brazil: Beija-Flor (Narrated in English) Part 1 of 2

Posted on June 22nd, 2010 by admin in brazilian carnival | Comments Off

Samba School: Beija-Flor de Nilópolis – February, 2005.
Part 1 of 2.

‘Beija Flor’ means ‘Humming Bird’ which is a beloved and omnipresent bird in the Rio region. The school is based outside of Rio (in a place called Nilopolis). However it is currently ranked the highest among all Rio samba schools. It has achieved the reputation of being the best school by a combination of outstanding and unparalleled artistic organizational management with a strong determination to win. It is the only school with a whole team of Carnival Designers (currently 5 of them) where as most other schools only have one. It imposes strict rules and has the highest expectations towards all of its parading members. It began its recent winning streak in 1998 and won again in 2003, 2004, 2005, 2007 and 2008. In the years it didn’t win it has come very close and competitive. It is well-known for its creative extravagance and powerful colors.

The highlight of Brazil Carnival is undoubtedly the Rio Samba Schools Parade, a totally unique event in the world.

The Rio Samba Parade is the review of a fierce competition between the Rio samba schools. The judges and spectators watch the principal parades in the Sambodromo which was especially built for this event.

The Samba Parade is something everybody should experience at least once in their life. The event is broadcast live to several countries.

The Rio Samba Parade is very distinctive from all other street parades held at some other places in the world. It is not a street happening where people move chaotically about as they like, but more of a highly orchestrated show of vast proportions. Every parader has a specific role and place according to his costume in a particular wing, of a particular section of the samba school he/she is parading in support of.

Each year each school chooses a different theme for the Samba Parade. It can be a celebration of a particular period, or, of famous figures of Brazilian history. It may highlight a special event or speak of anything that might move the spirit and imagination; like a special animal, or one of the elements; water or fire, etc. The school has to illustrate the chosen theme through all its work:

• the samba tunes, which are especially written for that year
• the richly decorated floats and costumes of their 3,000 to 5,000 parading members designed by the school’s Carnival Designer (the so called Carnavalesco).

The parade of every school is highly organized and designed. They line up in a unique way to present their pageant.

The costumes are extremely imaginative, colorful, elaborate and detailed. They are truly original, designed and made from scratch each year. They have mirrors, feathers, metallic cloth, silk and sometimes gems or coins. These costumes take months to make. The work starts roughly 8 months in advance.

You may think of the whole event as a tropical opera or rather like several operas happening on one night. It is beautiful to watch and the experience for the paraders themselves is so intense that the memories last for a lifetime.

Brazil Carnival 2010 Salvador, View From Camarote Ondina …Timbalada!!!

Posted on May 2nd, 2010 by admin in brazilian carnival | 8 Comments »

The people from Bahia, are known in Brazil as those who most love parties. Almost every event is reason for a party, which should last as long as possible. Baianos do not deny this fame. The Brazilian carnival had strong influence from the Africans, and Salvador is the blackest Brazilian city. All the samba schools in Rio must have a block composed only of baianas, women from Bahia. So, it is not a surprise that Salvador has one of the best carnivals in Brazil. According to Guinness, with 2,000,000 people (including 800,000 tourists), Salvador has the largest street carnival in the WORLD. While in Rio most of the carnival happens in ball-rooms and in the Sambadrome (which require people to pay to participate), in Salvador most events happen in the streets and beaches, and are free for all. As a consequence, the carnival in Salvador goes on, non-stop, for nearly ten days. Small groups called “blocos” pop up everywhere in the city, and they are soon followed by locals and tourists. A tradition of the carnival in Salvador are the “trios eletricos” (electric trio). Back in 1950, two persons, Dodo and Osmar (who today are legends of Brazilian carnival), put high power speakers on top of a Ford 1929 and drove around town inviting people to follow the rythm; it was a massive success. In 1951, the electric duo was joined by Temistocles Aragao, and the first Trio Eletrico was formed. Ever since, several trios were formed in Bahia, with much more sound power, on top of much bigger trucks; to follow a trio eletrico, just join the crowd, mind your ears, and let it go. Several of the most popular musicians in Brazil are from Bahia, and they do come back for carnival. So, you may come across free shows by Caetano Veloso, Gilberto Gil, Daniella Mercury, Gal Costa, Maria Betania and several other singers and groups; a sure presence is of Carlinhos Brown, Timbalada and the VoaDois.

Posted on April 26th, 2010 by admin in brazilian carnival | Comments Off

Samba School: Porto da Pedra – February, 2005.
Part 1 of 2.

Porto da Pedra was originally part of a soccer club established by a teen street gang. A relative new-comer both as a school and in the Special Group (only among the elite since 1995). It has achieved its quick success due to huge investments from its sponsors buying very well-known carnival designers from its competitors. It is based in in the suburbs of Niteroi, across the bay from Rio.

Carnival Brazil 2010, View From Camarote Azul…Amazing View!!!

Posted on March 30th, 2010 by admin in brazilian carnival | 25 Comments »

Carnival Rio de Janeiro. Rio’s lavish carnival is one of the world’s most famous. Scores of spectacular floats surrounded by thousands and thousands of dancers, singers, and drummers parade through the enormous Sambódromo Stadium dressed in elaborate costumes (or, quite often, with absolutely no costume.) It is an epic event televised around the world. The origin of Brazil’s carnival goes back to a Portuguese pre-lent festivity called “entrudo”, a chaotic event where participants threw mud, water, and food at each other in a street event that often led to riots (an event quite similar to today’s Andean carnival – see Venezuelan section of this booklet). Rio’s first masquerade carnival ball (set to polkas and waltzes) was in 1840. Carnival street parades followed a decade later with horse drawn floats and military bands. The sound closely associated with the Brazilian carnival, the samba, wasn’t part of carnival until 1917. The samba is a mix of Angolan semba, European polka, African batuques, with touches of Cuban habanera and other styles. What we now know as samba is a result of the arrival of black Brazilians (primarily from Bahia) to the impoverished slums or favelas surrounding Rio following the abolition of slavery in Brazil in 1888. Today the carnival is organized by the escolas de samba (samba schools). They first appeared in 1928. Much more than musical groups, they are in fact, neighborhood associations that provide a variety of community needs (such as educational and health care resources) in a country with grinding poverty and no social safety net.
Carnival Salvador da Bahia. Salvador da Bahia was Brazil’s first center of government (from 1549 to 1763), and remains its musical capital. For centuries, Bahia was home of the Portuguese sugar industry and slave trade. As a result, today Salvador is the largest center of African culture in the Americas. Amidst the colonial architecture and cobblestone streets, there is an unmistakeable beat of Bahian drumming. You can hear it in the stereo speakers and boomboxes blasting the latest Axê pop music. It becomes overwhelming when the large percussion ensembles (with literally hundreds of drummers) called “blocos Afros” take to the streets for carnival. It was a movement launched a half century ago by the group, Filhos de Gandhi (Sons of Gandhi). Today, there are countless blocos Afros that have taken on a new mission as part of the “negritude” movement to re-establish Black Pride. Olodum, Ara Ketu, Ilê Aiyé, Timbalada and the all women’s drumming mega-group Dida all electrify Salvador every February during carnival. Olodum’s Billy Arquimimo explains, “We started Olodum 20 years ago because at that time, black people used to be ashamed of their skin. We thought it was necessary to do something to re-establish Black Pride, and to redevelop African culture here in Bahia.” Like Rio, the city of Salvador is famous for its carnival. For both cities, it is an enormous festival leading up to Lent. That is where the similarities end. Rio is famous for its Samba schools, elaborate costumes (or at times no costumes), and a huge parade held at the Sambódromo Stadium. Salvador is Brazil’s street carnival. It lasts for weeks. The music begins daily as early as noon and runs until 7 or 8 the next morning…carnival brazil 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020, Carnival Salvador Bahia, Mocidade Independente, timbalada, thatiana pagung, Ivete Sangalo, Mocidade Independente, WorldTraveler, Rio Carnival 2010 Carnaval in Rio de Janeiro, carnival rio de janeiro brazil carnaval samba mangueira brasil parade desfile tourism travel
