Synopsis

Album Description
Home to the samba, Brazil?s explosive Carnaval music, bossa nova, a popular style derived from the samba, choro and carioca funk, Rio de Janeiro is one of the country?s musical hotbeds where music is an integral part of everyday life. Brazil?s cocktail of African, European and indigenous cultures has led to a dazzling variety of rhythms, melodies and regional styles, reflected in The Rough Guide To The Music Of Brazil: Rio De Janeiro, which is bursting with some of the most innovative sounds of Brazil?s most vivacious city.
