Please pardon my ignorance, but I've got another question. The wiki page for samba schools includes these sentences: part of a battery of the samba school instruments: first of Deaf, deaf second-, third-deaf, box, war, peal, rattle, tambourine, cuíca, agogô, reco-reco, tambourine, and plateis." This may be a translation from Portuguese but what does "deaf" mean here? And on the internet I get "hose" for the translation for Mangueira. Does that city's name mean "hose" in English? Thanks.
@Azizip17 Deaf means a great tambor that makes the rythm. There are 2 great tambors in the bateria, one the sound is bass and the other, a litle bit more thin/acute...
And Mangueira means the tree that produces mango fuits, the mango tree. Its a comunity(favela) in Rio.
Thanks for posting this clip! I love to see samba school rehersals and parades. I love the musicians' talent, skill, creativity, and energy. Unfortunately, I've never seen any samba school performances in person.
Since I don't speak Portuguese, I chose the English translation option, and the summery reads "commemorating 100 Years of Top Hat". What does that mean? Thanks!
