The Concertgebouw and partners invite you to<br />
attend our autumn <strong>festival</strong> of Brazilian arts and<br />
culture. This colourful, exciting event features a<br />
rich sample of art forms from this vibrant Latin<br />
American country ranging from dance, the<br />
visual arts, film and architecture to economics,<br />
gastronomy, theatre and music.<br />
Brazil is widely known for its football, caipirinhas,<br />
sambas, carnival and capoeira, but the Brasil<br />
Festival Amsterdam goes beyond clichés. Brazil<br />
is currently one of the world’s major growth<br />
markets and boasts a broad spectrum of<br />
remarkable culture which has grown out of three<br />
major traditions – European, Indian and African.<br />
Music is the best showcase for this dramatic<br />
fusion. Brazil offers a wide range of different<br />
styles: bossa nova, samba and Música Popular<br />
Brasileira in contrast to the innovative Tropicália,<br />
the emotive choro, Brazilian jazz, the art music<br />
of composers like Villa-Lobos, contemporary<br />
music, sultry Brazilectro and the Afro-Brazilian<br />
maracatu all feature in our wide range of<br />
performances by major Brazilian artists.<br />
Brazil is a modern country in which tradition<br />
and the avant-garde go hand in hand – from<br />
innovative theatre and cutting-edge design to<br />
rough street art and jazz of the highest calibre.<br />
Come and join us and experience for yourself<br />
all the exciting facets of Brazilian culture at the<br />
Brasil Festival Amsterdam.<br />
