A “roda” is an inclusive music event where everyone is invited to enjoy the beauty of Brazilian music – choro, samba, forró, baião, pagode and more.

This is a jam-along, a party, a space to learn from others, have fun, celebrate our cultural diversity and the beauty of Latin American rhythms, melodies and harmonies.

Every last Saturday of the month, we are taking our roda for a tour around the city, and we are offering a free workshop to share our music and help people learn how to play it. Bring your instruments and be ready to learn with us, or simply borrow one of ours and join us!

2pm – music workshop

3pm – jam-along

Sit at the table, jam along with us. Or simply enjoy, clap, dance or sign along. This is an accessible space where all are welcome to be part of the ensemble and make music together

This project is funded by Leeds City Council through the Leeds Cultural Investment Programme.
