When they hear Brazilian Rap Beats! Ha Ha Ha....!
Even in the loudest music in a samba band you can still hear the clear and sahrp sound of the Agogo Bells.
There are well over 200 community samba bands in the UK but very few of them play what would be recognised in Brasil as samba. You can hear real samba being played in London at Notting Hill Carnival on the lasty Monday of every August. Most of the bands are Caribbean, but there is some Brazilian samba too.
t is normally fast and has a fast beat and tempo. Actually samba can also be slow. What makes it sound different from other types of music is the specific samba swing. By this I mean not speed or enery or tightness, but the fact that half of the notes in a bar always fall slightly off the beat, in a very consistant pattern. The swing stays the same throughout all of the instruments and variations of patterns, and is held by the melody too. It is the swing that gives samba its addictive feel. The samba swing is not the same as Jazz or latin swing, which have different offbeats. The swing cannot be annotated by conventional means so you can't learn it by reading musical notation, but you can hear it clearly in samba recordings. It derives from the African origins of samba music, which grew out of a complex mix of African music, marches and the polka. There is some great historical material on Youtube - try looking up anything by Clara Nunes, or Cartola. The modern samba schools in Rio play a much faster samba with more emphasis on percussion - you can also find these well illustrated on youtube - search for "ensaio tecnico na avenida". This bateria samba is so fast you can hardly hear the swing but it's there - without it the music would just sound like a march. Not all Brazilian traditional music is samba, there are many other styles such as Maracatu and samba reggae which sound quite different, having a slightly different swing, different orchestration and a very different cultural tradition.
the music is good it is a lot of beat music with some lyric if you want to hear one you can downlaod magdalena by sergio mendez...=D

Ah, the difference between rural and urban samba is like the difference between a quiet meadow and a bustling city street. In rural samba, you might hear the gentle sounds of nature intertwined with the rhythm of the music, while urban samba is alive with the energy of the city, filled with diverse influences and vibrant beats. Both have their own unique beauty and charm, just like every painting has its own special colors and brushstrokes.
All the time, it's the national music but especialy around carnival time.
I think so but if they were to meet someday I would love to hear it from them
They haven't released it yet but it might be on the album coming out on November 15th 2011. There is also a chance they might release it as a single before that. On Youtube, you can watch a video Carlos made of them making the music video but you can't hear the music.

"Alleluia diffusa est gratia" is a choral piece by Hildegard von Bingen, a medieval composer. The piece features smooth, flowing melodic lines with overlapping voices creating a rich, harmonious texture. The use of Gregorian chant elements also contributes to its monophonic texture.
