On Wednesday the 23rd May 2012 the Super Slider Samba band came from Brazil to play Samba to us.

They played lots of different drums and they played the Tambourine. Jonas, one of the samba players, explained that you can have 300 instruments in a samba band and they play samba music at carnival for everyone to dance too.

They handed out instruments so that we could join in too!

If you want to find out more, here is an weblink to a carnival in Rio where Samba music is played:
