Orquestra Popular da Bomba do Hemetério



02:30 onwards ...... Talking about choreography, I think Remko should "attempt" to perform  this act .

Formed in 2002, the Orquestra Popular da Bomba is lead by Francisco Amancio da Silva , aka "Maestro Forró" , the orchestra consists of 21 members, including technicians and musicians, all residents of the neighborhood of Hemetério ( Recife, Pernacumbo state ).  The orchestra presented a traditional repertoire stretching from some Mambo of Benny More to Mangue Beat of the late  Chico Science, from the Swing to Maracatu, from Xaxado to Ciranda, from Cavalho Marino to Fox Trot passing through the standard renditions of the famous "Vassourinhas", "Cabelo de Fogo" and "Elefante".
