Brazilian Rhapsody
In one of my trips to Rio de Janeiro I had the pleasure to go into the famous Carnival parade, a spectacular show of rhythm, color and positive energy!
I thought it would be fun to write a piece where I could mix a full orchestra (in this case, I used a large one!) with the percussion ensemble normally used in the samba schools (called “bateria”).
With this work I tried to pass on the amazing experience I lived on those days spent in this wonderful city.
