Samba School Roseira presents: Drum – The Heart of Samba
Manse's own samba school União da Roseira has been bringing the colors, dance and rhythms of the Brazilian carnival samba for almost 40 years.
This year, Roseira will lead the audience to the roots of samba, to its deepest and most exciting part – the rhythm of the drum. Our enredo “The Drum – the Heart of Samba” tells a story that extends from the sacred ceremonies of the Yoruba people of West Africa to the streets of Rio de Janeiro and even Helsinki. During the story, we stop by significant figures such as José Nogueira, Tia Ciata and José Pereira da Silva to see how exciting historical moments have helped shape the great lines of samba's development. The drum is not only a source of music, but a force that connects people and carries stories across generations and cultures, bringing people together into one great community.
