Brazilian
Brasilian percussion instruments and performance practices emerged from the African Diaspora. Portuguese Brasilian colonists brought with them enslaved Africans, and the Africans transferred their music and religion to South America. Unlike Cuba, however, Brasil had a much more racially and culturally mixed population, including large numbers of native Indians. This mixture resulted in a profusion of hybrid musical styles, forms, and instruments, layered onto an African rhythmic base.Hybrid
The contemporary Brasilian Carnaval is an excellent example of this hybrid of the musical and cultural. Elements of African music, native Indian costume and dance, and European Catholic religion blend together in a Festival that's like no other on earth. Musically centered around the Samba schools, Brasilian percussion features an African rhythmic sensibility that's realized on a variety of African and non-African instruments, including snare drums, cuicas, and tambourine-like pandeiros. This rich instrumental blend is what gives Brasilian music its unique, vibrant sound.Remo
