many thanks for the info, Reinsamba. Here is some reading available in Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maracatu

There must have been some brazilian people in the percussion section of the demonstration, because they are playing a typical northern Brazil rhythm from Recife/Pernambuco, the "Maracatú". Please add the "maracatu" into your tag list. As far as I know, this is the first maracatú file at freesound project, congratulations ;-)
