Founded in 1976, they create samba-enredos for carnival parades.
For a sense of their range, try 'Canto Das Três Raças' and 'Samba-Enredo 2001 - Um Mouro No Quilombo. Isto a História Registra!'.
Their songs often address social and historical themes, like Brazil's racial history in 'Canto Das Três Raças'. As a majority-black institution, they've faced challenges in the competitive carnival scene. Their recent work, such as 'Samba Enredo 2013 - Ao Mestre Do Riso Com Carinho', continues with politically conscious content.
The school was founded in 1976 and has produced samba-enredos each year for carnival. Their catalog includes tracks from 'Samba-Enredo 1973 - Os Imortais da Música Brasileira' to more recent songs like 'Samba-Enredo 2006 - O Imperador Morava Ali, do Outro Lado do Tuiuti'. They've maintained a focus on social themes throughout.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
