Monobloco
With samba and the drums of the Samba Schools as its base, Monobloco brought various other musical styles to its Carnival repertoire exactly 24 years ago. From pop to funk, from MPB to Northeastern rhythms, Monobloco is constantly renewing itself, incorporating the hits and novelties that are in fashion in Brazil into its repertoire.
Another of Monobloco's trademarks is the creation of the percussion workshops, which are active all year round in Rio de Janeiro and São Paulo and have trained more than 2,000 drummers since 2000. In 2003, the Monobloco Show was created, a group of professional musicians who perform from January to January at events, recordings, national and international tours, promoting a wide and varied tour of Brazilian music.
