The Sound of Partido Alto

“The Sound of Partido Alto” is a laid-back yet rhythm-rich collection of samba powered by the pulse of partido alto—a style known for its conversational lyrics and rolling, syncopated drumming patterns. This playlist brings together classics and deeper cuts from foundational voices like Clementina de Jesus, Candeia, Wilson Moreira, and Almir Guineto, capturing a groove that’s both spontaneous and steeped in tradition.

Moving through the bold storytelling of Bezerra da Silva, the melodic elegance of Jovelina Pérola Negra, and the streetwise swing of Zeca Pagodinho, the playlist blends live recordings and studio tracks with a raw, communal energy. Whether it’s the sharp wordplay of Dicró or the harmony-driven choruses of Grupo Fundo de Quintal and Samba da Vela, this set offers a vibrant tour through the neighborhoods, rodas de samba, and backyards where partido alto lives and thrives.
