Rehearsals
ЯEPUЬLIC OF SWING
FOUNDED: Spring 2004
LOCATION: Manchester City Centre
GENRE: Rio-style samba & samba funk
WELCOME: Everyone
All are welcome but ЯEPUьLIC may be more suitable for intermediate to advanced players or those with some experience of playing samba. We can provide instruments for those without any.
The instruments in the bateria are the surdo, caixa (snare), repinique, tamborim, chocalho, agogo bells and cuicas.
We do not play djembes, timbas or congas as these are not traditional Rio carnival instruments.
For all enquiries about the Bateria please contact:
Alex Sidebottom (director)
0161 256 1311

A typical rehearsal: new players and dancers join our experienced members in laying down a new groove for the summer.
