CULTURAL AFFAIRS PRESENTS

Brazilian Cia Armorial

Monday, April 20
Holloway Hall, Great Hall, 7 pm

Cia Armorial performs Brazilian folk music that transports you to the time when purity, simplicity and sincerity reigned, where noble values were transmitted from generation to generation and through endless conversations on the balconies, songs that extolled love by the simple and sweet poetry of songs that enchanted love and heartbreak from the time of Colonial Brazil.

Cia Armorial features Marcello Linhos playing viola caipira and voice, Nelson Latif on seven string guitar, Esdras Rodrigues (rebeca), and Marcelo Lima (Bandolin). These string instruments are traditionally Brazilian, especially the viola caipira, a plucked 10-string guitar and a symbol of Brazilian country music.

Sponsored by World Artists Experiences, Inc.; the Embassy of Brazil, Washington, D.C.; and the SU Office of Cultural Affairs.

Admission is free, but tickets are required.
