Incorporated into every aspect of the Rio carnival are dancing and music. The most famous dance is the samba, an African dance brought over by the slaves. The samba was created by the African slaves mixing with the choros, street bands, of Brazil.
The samba remains a popular dance not only in carnival but in the ghetto villages outside of the main cities. These villages keep alive the historical aspect of the dance without the influence of the western cultures. Other dances include the lundu, the polka, and the maxixe.

Samba history and the history of Carnival are intertwined and can be traced back to Africa and the slave trading. The relationship can easily be seen by colourful costumes of feathers and the intense dance completing the Brazilian fantasy fest! To understand the phenomena one has to look at brazil history and the great country’s development from Portugal. The carnival was early established in Europe as the festival of the lent, or “carne vale” which means good bye to the flesh/meat. The fest also entered Brazil through Portugal influences as a violent carnival game called the entrudo.
