Good afternoon, how are you? I hope everything does! Thank you for your comment and for your interest, I am sure that wherever you arrive in our country, it will be an honor to welcome you. After all, manifesting elements of another culture in our own behavior is one of the bases of peace! If you want to know something interesting, look -" Chico Science and Nação Zumbi, Afrociberdelia - Good luck, thank you.@@blackamericanlesbianprofes4357

Hello, thanks for your comment. Yes, Salvador is the capital of Bahia. And thank you for your interest, for us it is a great honor.

Que lindo, mostrei para minha mãe que é Mestra de Baiana e ela ficou muito emocionada, ela disse: que tava muito orgulhosa e que queria que minha tia que também era Mestra e cadeirante visse onde a música do folclore delas chegou, aos Jovens de hoje em dia! 🎉 O Baianado Vive!

[@diadosapato]

O que seria o baianado? Procurei na net e n achei nada

[@auau1miau]

@@diadosapato Olá, o Baianado é como as mestras se referem ao grupo que elas lideram, tanto as dançarinas/brincantes como os músicos/tocadores. Difere muito de grupo para grupo, alguns chamam o Baianá, se estendendo no final o aaaah. As Baianinhas do grupo dela como eram chamadas carinhosamente tinham entre 50 e 80 anos. O nome do grupo era Baianas Flor de Lis, tem vídeo delas participando de festivais como o da Lavadeira em Pernambuco e um quer era no centro de Maceió. Anos atrás a Karol com K também usou em uma de suas musicas o toque característico das baianas. Esse tipo de manifestação cultural não é exclusivo da Bahia, pois se estende até o sul da Paraíba, misturando com maracatu rural, coco e outras vertentes... A universidade federal de Alagoas fez um trabalho muito bonito em meados de 2007-2008 reunindo os diversos grupos do Estado e tentando mapear. Como fazem anos quer não vou ao Brasil não posso te dizer como anda o cenário atual, mas o que digo é que com a quarentena muitos grupos foram extintos como por exemplo o da minha mãe pois o centro social em que eles se reuniam fechou e o medo do contágio afastou muitas senhorinhas.

I bought her CD a long time ago and really loved her incandescent sounds. I played her Album every day, you can imagine suddenly hearing this song and seeing you all dancing to it! It was like, OH MY GOSH!! THEY'RE PLAYING MY JAM! 😃 So happy! THANK YOU SO MUCH ALL OF YOU! hope to see more of this. I will definitely 'LIKE' and 'SUBSCRIBE' 😉💞
