Tamboréal Samba Bloco

Come and dance!

There’s sure to be a whiff of the Rio Carnaval floating in the Montreal evening air.

Surdo, conga, snare drum, tambourine, repinique, chocalho—percussion instruments reign supreme with this exuberant group that delivers a powerful mix of Samba de Roda, Samba de Cabula, maracatu and other Afro-Brazilian rhythms in rapid tempo.

Formed in 2022 by Carlos Henrique Feitosa, this lively collective, with its jazzy, spiced up improvisations and upbeat vocals, certainly holds its own against anything coming out of the famous Brazilian samba schools.
