If you're in Salvador da Bahia now, feel free to stop by
Bahia-Online's Brazilian Music/Culture shop in
Pelourinho (the neighborhood comprising Salvador's colonial center). If you
aren't here and you'd like to listen to and perhaps acquire Brazilian music that you might not be able to find wherever you do happen to be...that can be done via these pages.
Our "specialty", such as it is, would be
the music of the Bahian Recôncavo -- that great arc around the Baia de Todos os Santos where Bahia's sugarcane plantations are located, cradle to the Brazilian branch of a rich Bantu culture which has been paramount in making Bahia the extraordinary place it is today.
We don't limit ourselves to our particular region however...we carry music of many different types and styles from all over Brazil, a miniscule fraction of which is set out on this virtual store...but we're working on getting more music up...and there's a
lot more to come.
