The Roda Da Samba is a phenomenon at the Bimhuis, a musical encounter in which singers, guitarists and percussionists are seated in a circle and everyone is invited to dance. Expect a lot of forró, Brazil’s current hip dance style. Host Nelson Latif and band welcome renowned Brazilian musicians on this festive evening.

Nelson Latif plays acoustic guitar and cavaquinho, a small Brazilian string instrument which resembles a ukelele. Nelson has his roots in the São Paulo jazz scene and he moved to Amsterdam in the late 1980s. He has collaborated with countless musicians including Lilian Vieira and Michael Moore.

At the cafe Cocktailbar Rising Moon.

The Bimhuis restaurant is open prior to the concert from 6.30 til 8.30PM (reservations via 020-7882158). After the concert, the Bimhuis Café is open (free entrance).
