Rhythms of Resistance: African Musical Heritage in Brazil
Peter Fryer
African rhythms are at the heart of contemporary black Brazilian music. He describes how slaves, mariners, and merchants brought African music from Angola and the ports of east Africa to Latin America. Fryer examines how the rhythms and beats of Africa were combined with European popular music to create a unique sound and dance tradition.
