ORQUESTRA VOADORA
BIOGRAPHY
Orquestra Voadora (Flying Orchestra) is a powerful and creative Brass & Percussion ensemble, eleven musicians with the capacity to create the spirit of Rio de Janeiro Carnaval anytime, anywhere, performing on the stage, doing a Parade in the middle of the audience, or both combined, making people feel like being in Brazil. On the wings of percussion and fanfare, the band embarks on their own compositions and great classics of music on a supersonic journey of samba, rock, pop, funk and maracatu.
"Elétrica" is Orquestra Voadora's new show, created especially for the Jazz & Blues Festival Circuit, with a new configuration of its stage performance, exploring resources such as the electric guitar and drums, which give even more weight and dynamics.
Pioneer of the new street Carnaval in Rio de Janeiro, the Orquestra Voadora pilots a block of the largest scale, one of the largest in the city, having 200 brass players, 100 drummers, stilts, jugglers, and nearly 200.000 people attending.
