SPOK FREVO
Passo de anjo - Ao Vivo
(Barzil)
The big band’s sound is built on frevo, the spirited music of Carnival in the northeast Brazilian state of Pernambuco. The orchestra has crossed musical boundaries taking the once-only street festival music on international tours of France, Italy, Netherlands, Belgium, Denmark and Switzerland.
“A kind of hyper-caffeinated polka, frevo is the northeast’s answer to samba, usually played for the umbrella-wielding dancers who draw on elements of capoeira acrobatics,” noted a reviewer for The Times of London.
