For the 1st time in London, they will present material from their new and acclaimed album ‘MTV apresenta Casuarina’, translating the concept of the famous ‘roda de samba’ (samba circle). The setlist includes songs written by the band and classic sambas and gems by João Nogueira, Candeia, Nei Lopes, Paulinho da Viola, Zé Keti, Dorival Caymmi and Vinícius de Moraes.

As a truly unique form of dance music evolved, with its dazzling arrangements and instrumentation, the word came to describe the music itself, as well as the various styles of dancing.
