DESCRIPTION:The Handphibians' mission is to provide opportunities for commu
 nity members to learn about the cultural traditions and music of Brazil\; 
 to act as a point of contact and to actively promote networks among member
 s of the Brazilian music community in the US\; to showcase traditional Bra
 zilian music in a performance or educational setting\; and to have fun in 
 the process. The Handphibians are modeled after the Brazilian baterias (pe
 rcussion batteries) of the Escolas de Samba in Rio de Janeiro\, Blocos Afr
 os of Salvador\, and the Maracatu Naçãos of Recife. Their music is also 
 naturally influenced by the percussion traditions of Cuba\, Africa\, and e
 ven good ol' Wisconsin. Founded in 1990s by Robert Schoville\, the Handphi
 bians are based in Madison\, Wisconsin and are comprised of all voluntary 
 community members of all ages and musical backgrounds.&nbsp\; Grupo Balanc
 a will be opening for the Handphibians.&nbsp\;Grupo Balança is a Madison-
 based ensemble of top-tier musicians who perform Brazilian samba pagode. T
 his music consists of a small group of singers\, percussion and plucked in
 struments. It is an uptempo and exuberant pop music found in parties\, con
 certs\, and other celebrations in Brazil\, with roots stemming from Afro-B
 razilian drumming traditions.&nbsp\;\n\nCONTACT: music@union.wisc.edu\n\nU
