Brazilian Carnival Day (for schools)

Heralding the South American theme of the 2012 York Early Music Festival and celebrating with the University of York’s Festival of Ideas, composer/percussionist Claudio Kron from Brazil transports us to Latin America through a series of workshops exploring Brazilian arts and culture.

Sessions – aimed at 9 to 14 year olds – will cover percussion music, samba dance and capoeira (mixing martial arts with dance) with live performances from Claudio and his band, and the University of York St John Samba Band.

Admission: by ticket only available from the NCEM Box Office
