Latin In The Park: Samba Do Brasil
Music
After previous successful editions, Latin in The Park travels to Brazil on August 8th, the land of color, rhythm and joie de vivre. During this vibrant evening, you'll immerse yourself in the enchanting world of samba, where music, dance and culture come together in the open air of the Zuiderparktheater.
The evening begins with an energetic Samba no Pé workshop by Julinha Solis, a versatile dancer who is active in both the Netherlands and Brazil. Whether you're dancing samba for the first time or already have experience, Julinha knows how to get everyone moving with her enthusiastic style and infectious energy.
Then Roda da Holanda takes the stage. This leading Dutch samba formation captivates the audience with an authentic repertoire of Brazilian greats such as Beth Carvalho, Alcione, Leci Brandão, Arlindo Cruz and Jorge Ben Jor. Expect compelling rhythms, vibrant percussion and the warm atmosphere of a traditional 'roda de samba', straight from the heart of Rio de Janeiro.
The evening ends with a swinging afterparty by DJ Mano Fred, who keeps the dance floor packed until the late hours with his varied selection of classic and modern Brazilian tracks. Whether you sing along, dance along or simply enjoy the atmosphere, this summer evening feels like a mini-vacation to Brazil.
