YES !!! BRAZIL
DANCE
 

THE BEST BRAZILIAN ENTERTAINMENT IN THE UK!

YES!!!BRAZIL band was founded in 1994 and has travelled the world playing the most diverse sounds of Brazil and Latin America, from Bossa Nova and Jazz to Flamenco. Many recognised musicians and singers have worked with YES!!!BRAZIL band along the years. Currently the band is composed by 10 members, adapting its formation according to the venues.

To name a few, our musicians have played in the Cardiff Arena, ICC Birmingham, London Hilton Hotel, Dorchester Hotel, The Savoy Hotel, The Ministry of Sound, National Trust, BBC TV, Sheraton Hotel in Dhaka, Hilton Hotel in Dubai, President Hotel in Tel Aviv, Bollywood Bombay, Dublin TV, Cork Castle in Ireland, Hanover Castle in Germany, Dar'Asalam in Tanzania, Sheraton Palace in Georgia (Tibilisi), Figueira da Foz in Portugal... etc.

Our team combines elegance with energy and a flamboyant display of exotic costumes. From Samba Extravaganza to Capoeira and Salsa, this group, originally set up in the 1990s by dancers, choreographers and producers Fatima (Tima) Borges from Sao Jose dos Campos, Sao Paulo, Brazil and Tony Ferre(A.M. Cruz Braz) from Bairrada, Coimbra, Portugal, echo the ambience of Rio during Carnival time. A team of fourteen dancers and ten musicians complement one another with rhythms ranging from Sambas to Salsa and Bossa Nova to Capoeira, opening doors for the appreciation of Brazilian culture and music throughout the UK and abroad.

Touring five continents to the applause of audiences from Singapore to Slovenia and from Kenya to Karachi, the team now encompasses new talents including choreographer Vania Baptista dos Reis from Jacarai, Sao Paulo Brazil, (who formerly danced with Grupo Raca Sao Paulo) and singers Graziela Rodriguez of Galicia Spain (who also sings with the Milan Four Soprano Band) and Beatriz Mohr from Santa Catarina, Brazil, singing for the last ten years all rhythms from Brazil (Bossa Nova, MPB, Axe, Forro). Together they explore new fusions of Flamenco, Axe, Jazz and Ballet.

Stay tuned for the group’s new musical scores encompassing styles from the moody blues of saxophonist Marcello de Sousa (Curumim), Universidade Antonio Carlos Jobim, of Sao Paulo, Brazil, to the hectic pace of Brazilian Lambada, Axe and Bossa Nova dance forms.
