Join us at the Effra Social for “Brazil meets Brixton”” - an unforgettable night of musical fusion with the Brixton Chamber Orchestra. With live music, dancing and authentic food and drink, this festa promises to be a vibrant cultural exchange that will bring the rhythm of Rio to the heart of Lambeth!We’re excited to welcome a talented lineup of artists travelling all the way from Brazil to perform with your local orchestra. Get ready to experience the traditional rhythms of Bahia in sleek orchestrations, and some classic British hits reimagined with a lively latin twist.

This cross-cultural celebration is deeply rooted in our local community. With Portuguese being the second most spoken language in Lambeth and Brazilians recently becoming one of its largest communities, this event is a response to the diverse and rich cultural landscape of our home borough. We’re inspired by the influence of Brazilian culture in our area and are excited to use this project as a way to deepen our connection with Lambeth's Brazilian community and promote the culture to our supporters and fans.
BCO has always been dedicated to making orchestral music accessible to everyone, and this event marks the start of an exciting journey of international collaboration, building bridges that connect our musics and communities even further. There is even a Brazil tour in the works for 2025, but for now we’re starting right here in Brixton, and we can’t wait to share this incredible experience with you.
So, come ready to frevo, feast, and immerse yourself in the energy of this celebração!
