To celebrate IWD at our blogspot, I have found three video fragments featuring accomplished female performers devoting their skills and chops to spread joy and happiness performing choro.

Enjoy a performance of "Cinco Companheiros" (= "Five Friends") a choro by Pixinguinha, in the Escola Portátil de Música - EPM,in Rio de Janeiro.

Enjoy also the group Choro das Tres celebrating National choro day (23. April, 2006) in a performance of "Brejeiro" by Ernesto Nazareth.

During a workshop featuring the famous Época de Ouro in 2002 the young bandolim player of Chora das Tres, Elisa (-then just 9 years old), had an opportunity to perform together with the stars of the choro tradition. Enjoy also this video fragment
