Samba-enredo is a vibrant and festive subgenre of samba music, integral to Brazilian carnaval celebrations. Originating from the traditional samba schools of Rio de Janeiro and São Paulo, samba-enredo is characterized by its infectious rhythm, elaborate melodies, and rich storytelling lyrics that often reflect Brazil's culture, history, and social issues. Bands like Velha Guarda Da Portela and artists like Dudu Nobre and Beth Carvalho are known for their intricate instrumental arrangements featuring cavaquinho, tamborim, and surdo, creating an uplifting atmosphere. The genre's roots in Afro-Brazilian traditions are preserved while continuously evolving, thanks to performers such as Almir Guineto and Wilson Das Neves.
