ABOUT
A Oca is an exciting music project which explores the rhythms, melodies and dances from the Amazonian and Northern Brazil using traditional instruments.
Description
Expect music in its purest form: bamboo pifano flutes and a healthy dose of Brazilian percussion – this is a traditional orchestration and yet contains such a powerful sound – dancing is an absolute must!
Taking this essence of community and the power of simplicity, A Oca will bring you the sounds of the Amazon jungle and the beauty of Northeastern Brazil: rhythms such us baiao, forro, maracatu and coco, which will make you dance and move instinctively. A Oca will stimulate you to transcend the primitive essences of your soul using music and dance as a tool – and all that in the corner of London!
