Raizes

Jean Abreu performed Raizes as part of Southbank Centre’s Rhythm Sticks percussion festival

“Raizes uses a range of Brazilian dance styles. Abreu often emphasises the ritual qualities of these movements but also their sociability. In the first section, he shuffles and mooches, striking poses.”
