Brazilian Carnival.

The carnival of Brazil is the most important in America because is an annual festival held forty-six days before Easter. On certain days of Lent, RomanCatholics and some other Christians traditionally. It lasts four days and four nights. It starts on Saturday and finishes on a Thursday. This event attracts many people in the world, moreover the rightsof transmissions sold to local television companies. It is considered as the King of Carnivals and signifies the beginning of the festivity.

Is a tradition in Brazil to attend to the carnivalbecause the schools of samba show the choreographies, singers and parade float to circulate in the sambodromo all the schools have their parade float, singers and dancers. The group or blocos asthey are known, parade through the city telling short stories through their music, dances and costumes. Each school parade is evaluated not only for its beauty but also for its technique. The winnersare announced at the closing of the carnival.

This event is amazing because I love the rhythm, colors, choreography, costumes and girls. The costumes and masks are of extreme importance, asthey depict their own story. Like music, even the costumes are influenced by the African heritage. Fabrics of different textures, adorned with feathers and sequins, are used. While designing suchelaborated costumes, the freedom of movement to the dancers is an essential aspect. I would like to travel to Brazil and enjoy this parade because I only watch in TV. This event takes places fromFebruary to march in these moths only; the ticket price is 100 to 150 dollars per person, tickets must be bought with three months before the event. But it´s worth! During carnival normal life issuspended and the daily worries are forgotten for as long as the festival lasts.
