Having lived directly with a tribe called the Krinkati for 8 years near a tributary of the Amazon...this was interesting...but nothing close to 'reality'...but who cares it is art none the less! :) This sounds much more africano than brazilian...:)
Wow, your understanding of choral pedagogy is really limited isn't it? First of all, as a professor of choral pedagogy, I automatically dismiss anyone who says "never" and "always." Teachers should teach what is appropriate for the music. And that leads me to your second comment on the choir's tone: the tone production in this performance is precisely what the composer intended. You should really educate yourself before making such flippant comments.
ok, just gonna throw it out there that almost every choir I've ever participated in (HS, District, All-State and Collegiate level) has at some point used movement/choreography... as far as the horizontal tone... it's supposed to be that way... they're imitating the sound of an old Indian tribe which wouldn't have tall concertized vowels..
Good rendering of the songs. Because these songs were arranged by a Brazilia composer,being a Brazilian myself, I would suggest more care with the consonant T, which in English should be aspirated, but not in this song.

Our choir, and the advanced choir, and the seventh and eighth grade choir are going to do this, but it's much slower.
