CARNAVAL BRASILEIRO35Th Anniversary
Time: 9:00pm, Tickets: $40.00
Palmer Events Center, 900 Barton Springs Road, Austin, Info: (512) 542-7124
The heart and soul of this festivity reside in the authentic, fiery Brazilian carnaval music provided by two high energy bands. New York's Beleza Brasil is making their ninth appearance in Austin. They have performed at venues up and down the East Coast and are regularly voted the Best Brazilian Band in the USA by the Brazilian Press Association. Veterans of Rio's famous carnaval parades, the eleven Brazilian-born musicians of Beleza Brasil have played individually with everyone from Baden Powell and Marvin Gaye, to Sun Ra and David Byrne but, in Austin, they present a heady mix of traditional rhythms: samba, frevo, marchinha, bloco-afro and much more via their battery of pounding, sensual drums.
