SUMMARY:Ilê Aiyê
DESCRIPTION:Buy Tickets on Eventbrite \nBuy Tickets \n\nTicket details:\n\nAdvance tickets\n\n$40 general\n$55 premium balcony\n$60 premium orchestra\n\n\nDay of tickets\n\n$50 general\n$65 premium balcony\n$70 premium orchestra\n\n\n\n\n🇺🇸 \nJoin local Brazilian arts nonprofit EducArte for a historic evening with Ilê Aiyê\, the legendary Afro-bloco that redefined Brazil’s cultural landscape and was instrumental in promoting Black consciousness in Brazil. On September 5\, Ilê Aiyê brings its powerful samba-afro rhythms\, dynamic Afro-Brazilian dance\, and a message of pride and resistance to Washington\, DC\, at the UDC Theater of the Arts. \nIlê Aiyê was founded in 1974 by a group of young people in the Liberdade neighborhood of Salvador\, Bahia\, inspired by the US Black Power movement and African liberation struggles. They were determined to celebrate their African heritage during Salvador’s Carnival—a festival that\, despite the city’s Black majority\, had become dominated by white participants. From its origins in a Candomblé house\, Ilê Aiyê became the first Afro bloco in Salvador\, creating a space where Black Brazilians could express their identity\, reclaim their roots\, and challenge social exclusion. Their music is driven by powerful percussion; their lyrics honor African and Afro-Brazilian history; and their performances are a vibrant display of tradition and innovation. \nThe group’s influence extends far beyond carnival parades. Ilê Aiyê inspired a wave of Afro blocos across Brazil and has become a symbol of Black empowerment and cultural affirmation. Their annual Beleza Negra (Black Beauty) pageant celebrates Black women as goddesses\, countering mainstream beauty standards and affirming the beauty and strength of Black identity. As the New York Times noted\, Ilê Aiyê maintains both its musical and racial roots\, creating a unique sound that is deeply rooted in African and Afro-Brazilian traditions while addressing contemporary issues of race and justice. \nThis concert is a rare opportunity for the Greater Washington\, DC community to connect with the history\, music\, and axé of Ilê Aiyê. Experience the rhythms that have inspired generations\, the dance that tells stories of struggle and triumph\, and the message of unity that resonates across borders. Don’t miss your chance to be part of this unforgettable celebration of transatlantic Black culture and heritage. \n🇧🇷 \nNo dia 5 de setembro\, o Ilê Aiyê apresentará seus poderosos ritmos de samba-afro\, danças afro-brasileiras dinâmicas e uma mensagem de orgulho e resistência a Washington\, DC\, no UDC Theater of the Arts. Participe dessa noite histórica. Venha viver a experiência Ilê Aiyê\, o icônico bloco afro que transformou o cenário cultural do Brasil e foi fundamental na promoção da consciência negra no país. Este evento especial é produzido pelo centro de cultura brasileira EducArte\, organização de Maryland e região de Washington DC\, dedicada à valorização e promoção das artes brasileiras.  \nO Ilê Aiyê foi fundado em 1974 por um grupo de jovens no bairro da Liberdade\, em Salvador\, Bahia\, inspirados pelo movimento Black Power dos Estados Unidos e pelas lutas de libertação africanas. Determinados a celebrar sua herança africana durante o Carnaval de Salvador—uma festa que\, apesar da maioria negra da cidade\, havia se tornado dominada por participantes brancos—eles criaram o primeiro bloco afro de Salvador a partir de uma casa de Candomblé. Assim\, abriram espaço para que os negros brasileiros pudessem expressar sua identidade\, resgatar suas raízes e desafiar a exclusão social. Sua música é marcada por uma percussão poderosa; suas letras homenageiam a história africana e afro-brasileira; e suas apresentações são um espetáculo vibrante de tradição e inovação. \nA influência do grupo vai muito além dos desfiles de carnaval. O Ilê Aiyê inspirou uma onda de blocos afros em todo o Brasil e se tornou um símbolo de empoderamento negro e afirmação cultural. Seu concurso anual Beleza Negra celebra as mulheres negras como deusas\, desafiando padrões de beleza convencionais e afirmando a beleza e a força da identidade negra. Como destacou o New York Times\, o Ilê Aiyê mantém suas raízes musicais e raciais\, criando um som único\, profundamente enraizado nas tradições africanas e afro-brasileiras\, ao mesmo tempo em que aborda questões contemporâneas de raça e justiça. \nEste show representa uma oportunidade rara para a Grande Washington\, DC se conectar com a história\, a música e o axé do Ilê Aiyê. Vivencie os ritmos que inspiraram gerações\, a dança que conta histórias de luta e triunfo\, e a mensagem de unidade que ecoa além das fronteiras. Não perca a chance de fazer parte desta celebração inesquecível da cultura e herança negra transatlântica. \n\nEvent details:\n\nDate/time: Friday\, September 5\, 8 p.m. / doors open at 7:30 p.m.\nDuration: Estimated 2 hours\, at full artist discretion\nLocation: UDC Theater of the Arts (4200 Connecticut Avenue NW)\nTickets: \n\n\n\nAdvance tickets\n\n$40 general\n$55 premium balcony\n$60 premium orchestra\n\n\nDay of tickets\n\n$50 general\n$65 premium balcony\n$70 premium orchestra\n\n\nNOTE: Tickets may only be purchased through Eventbrite\, even at the door.

DESCRIPTION:Buy Tickets »🇧🇷 \nÉ com muito orgulho que a produtora EducArte traz para Washington DC\, capital dos Estados Unidos\, o grupo Fundo de Quintal\, a banda mais importante de samba de todos os tempos. Formado no Rio de Janeiro na década de 1970\, o grupo surgiu a partir das rodas de samba do bloco carnavalesco Cacique de Ramos\, agremiação criada por Bira Presidente\, Ubirany e Sereno em 1961. Fundo de Quintal tornou-se ao longo dos anos uma das maiores referências do gênero\, em especial no pagode\, vertente a qual o grupo se tornou o seu grande paradigma. \nCom 45 anos de sucesso na Música Popular Brasileira (MPB)\, não é à toa que ele é reconhecidamente o grupo do gênero mais premiado e respeitado da história. A vitalidade e a longevidade do Fundo de Quintal não tem segredo e a receita é simples: generosidade musical. Ele é\, orgulhosamente\, o berço de Jorge Aragão\, Sombrinha\, Almir Guineto\, Arlindo Cruz\, Walter Sete Cordas\, Cleber Augusto\, Neoci\, Mário Sérgio\, Ronaldinho e Ubirany—verdadeiros padrinhos das gerações de futuros sambistas. Todo sambista é um pouco Fundo de Quintal. \nO tempero desta receita é a assinatura inconfundível do grupo.

Performing for the first time in the DC region\, Fundo de Quintal is the most awarded and respected group in the history of samba pagode. They have defined the genre and created instruments that are now essential to the samba pagode\, creating their signature sound that includes cavaco-banjo\, tantã\, and repique de mão. \nEmerging from the samba community of the carnival bloco/ensemble Cacique de Ramos\, the seminal Brazilian samba group formed in Rio de Janeiro in the 1970s. After 45 years of success in Brazilian Popular Music (MPB)\, they not only represent the best in samba but have also crossed over to conquer the national Brazilian music scene.  \nFundo de Quintal includes a who’s who of the samba icons\, having launched the careers of Jorge Aragão\, Sombrinha\, Almir Guineto\, Arlindo Cruz\, Walter Sete Cordas\, Cleber Augusto\, Neoci\, Mário Sérgio\, Ronaldinho\, and Ubirany—all godfathers of generations of samba musicians. Every samba musician today has a bit of Fundo de Quintal in them.  \n \n\n\nEvent details\n\nDate/time: Wednesday\, March 19; doors open at 7:30 p.m.; estimated show duration is 1.5 hours but is subject to artist discretion\nLocation: Black Cat\, 1811 14th St NW\, Washington\, DC 20009\nTickets: General admission (standing) – $40 in advance\, $50 at the door; non-refundable\, all sales are final\nAges: All ages are welcome\nParking/transportation: Reserve parking through SpotHero; closest Metro stop is the U Street/Cardozo/African-American Civil War Memorial station (green line)\n\nTickets are sold through the Black Cat website.

SUMMARY:Levine Presents | Brazilian Choro: The Musical World of Pixinguinha
DESCRIPTION:Explore the imaginative and intriguing melodies of Brazilian choro with an evening celebrating the genre’s most influential composer\, Alfredo da Rocha Viana Filho\, also known as Pixinguinha. Alongside a remarkable guest ensemble\, faculty member Ceylon Mitchell guides us through this Afro-Brazilian genre as we sample some of the most famous choros composed by Pixinguinha and his contemporaries. \nAbout Brazilian Choro\nChoro emerged as a distinct musical genre around the middle of the 19th Century in Rio de Janeiro as a blend of Afrodiasporic and European musical styles in newly independent Brazil. Syncopated rhythms from Africa and popular dance forms from Europe (the polka\, habanera\, and more) melded together to create a unique new style\, which often gives the lead and highly ornamented melody to the flute\, harmonically supported by guitar and cavaquinho. Percussive accompaniment often comes from the pandeiro\, a Brazilian frame drum similar to a tambourine. Though choros are frequently instrumental and improvisatory\, they do feature lyrics from time to time.  \nFeaturing: Ceylon Mitchell\, flute; Seth Kibel\, sax; Pablo Regis de Oliveira\, cavaquinho; Felipe Garibaldi\, guitar; Lucas Ashby\, percussion; and André Coelho\, percussion \nLevine Music gratefully acknowledges the support of the DC Commission on the Arts and Humanities and all our generous donors.

SUMMARY:João Bosco at Catholic University (DC)
DESCRIPTION:As part of EducArte’s first Brazilian Guitar Masters Festival\, we present Brazilian music icons and Latin GRAMMY® winners Yamandu Costa and João Bosco! Experience the exuberance\, virtuosity\, and passionate energy of Brazilian rhythms on guitar. Yamandu Costa performs on Friday\, May 31\, at Miracle Theatre in Eastern Market and João Bosco performs on Saturday\, June 1\, at Catholic University. \nAbout João Bosco: \n🇺🇸 \nJoão Bosco has been loved in his home country of Brazil for decades\, since the 60s when he first began composing and performing. In the early 90s\, Bosco mounted a major tour of the US\, and since then he has become increasingly popular internationally\, regularly performing at the prestigious Montreux Jazz Festival. \nDespite his growing popularity outside of his homeland\, Bosco remains thoroughly attached to Brazil to the point of never leaving it for extended periods. His music\, though rooted in Brazil’s classic samba and bossa nova traditions\, combines rock and roll\, jazz\, African sounds\, and many other global styles in an eclectic brew that is as inventive and challenging as he is. \nJoão Bosco performs with top musicians from Brazil\, including guitarist Ricardo Silveira\, Francisco “Kiko” Freitas on drums\, and Gustavo Dellagerisi on bass. \nEducArte is thrilled to present João Bosco with his quartet here in Washington\, DC\, at Catholic University’s Hartke Theatre. New York City-based Bahian singer\, percussionist\, and guitarist Nanny Assis will open the show with his trio. \n🇧🇷 \nJoão Bosco é querido em seu país natal\, o Brasil\, há décadas\, desde os anos 60\, quando começou a compor e se apresentar.
