the block is known for its
colorful costumes and performances -
the ladies dress up in garish pink and red outfits and dance to the
lively music of the band, comprising of 25 female musicians.
their music is still very much inspired by the chico theme
but as time has progressed the band has applied their own unique touches to
performances, exploring natural rhythms including jongo, ijexá,
maculelê, and of course samba.
