kc Posted May 25, 2005 Report Share Posted May 25, 2005 (edited) FUN FUN FUN!!! Next Saturday, June 4th at Pepper Jack's With Ron Eazy spinning Brazilian and Latin Grooves. www.pepperjackcafe.com www.nuncaantes.ca Baque Nunca Antes Nunca Antes is a high-energy percussion troupe that brings deep rhythm and raw performance to Toronto's streets. Comprised of about 20 dynamic percussionists, the group plays Afro-Brazilian rhythms in a traditional style inherited from the maracatu nations of Recife Brazil. We are a walking sound system with a heavy emphasis on the bass drums, the alfaias. In command of the drums is the vibrant Aline Morales. We play and entertain in any venue and we hold weekly workshops for beginners and people already familiar with percussion and Brazilian rhythms. In the short time since our inception, Nunca Antes has changed the percussive landscape in Toronto, influencing other bands and introducing a new style to the city. The "baque" is the percussion of a maracatu. You've never before seen beats like these! Edited May 25, 2005 by Guest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well there it is. Long live Gennady Gefter and the Earl Haig Symphonic Band. Go check out this show.. nothing gets hotter than a hot-assed percussion ensemble.. and I don't imagine Hamilton sees too many of those. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kc Posted June 3, 2005 Author Report Share Posted June 3, 2005 Also of note, Maracatu will be bringing a circus act with them. I'm not really sure what is involved, only that some relatives of the band leader are in the circus and are in town and will be doing a performance at this show.
