Dear Members and lovers of Brazilian Culture and music,
Brazilian Music is known all over the world for its rhythm and “ginga”, something different that I can’t describe, which makes it so unique.
I was extremely blessed in the beginning of 2001 to be invited to participate with a program in a musician’s tech school, where I instructed them in Portuguese Language. It was a wonderful thing to arrive at Pracatum, founded by the musician Carlinhos Brown and listen to the rhythms and sounds still in the making which soon would become the “batuque” of the upcoming carnival.
My students were extremely gifted in many ways and I still cherish my memories and all the lessons they taught me.
We will start a new category where we will post Brazilian songs regularly with lyrics and videos, when possible.
I hope you enjoy it!
Regards,
Claudia Krusch
