Brazilian Percussion & Songs
The influence of African rhythms on Brazilian music is quite significant. Much of this influence came through religious practices, as well as traditional and recreational events. The primary musical instrument used is the atabaque, commonly known as the conga. In the Afro-Brazilian religion of Candomblé, the atabaque has three different sizes: Le, Rumpi, and Rum, similar to the Afro-Cuban versions known as quinto, conga, and tumba. There is an enormous variety of rhythms, and in this class, you will learn about some of them. These rhythms have a profound impact on music around the world.
