Capoeira is a highly stylized dance form from the martial arts from Africa. The berimbau is the most dominant instrument ( one steel wire between a wooden bow hit with a small stick held with a small shaker). Male vocals. **1: 3:45 street Carnaval beat, with voice and cuica. 2: 3:43 starts slow then builds up to fast tempo. 3: 4:16 nice and mellow berimbau trance. ***4: 3:26 maximum trance berimbau 5: 4:03 the most popular beat among fighters, simple yet full. 6: 3:53 the most popular chant, 7: 4:06 chant. 8: 4:06 second most important beat, the lows and highs of the berimbau ***9: 4:59 flute like instrument the ocarina is VERY NICE 10: 5:10 berimbau in 6/8 time, different. **11: 3:03 double berimbau (gets in an extra note) *12: 5:59 nice chants and great percussion. 13: 4:38 slow and low chant. *14: 3:48 a maracatu rhythm, more drums on this one. 15: 2:43 tablas add an interesting sound with berimbau. sort of a berimbau raga. 16: 3:05 electric berimbau, jungle sounds. **17: 5:19 real nice low keyed yet a much alive sound.
