Quinteto em Branco e Preto

The Quinteto em Branco e Preto (Quintet in Black and White) draws its name from the skin color of its members. With its repertory focused on traditional samba, the group is highly popular among the working-class audiences of São Paulo, where it was formed. Their adherence to the values of this genre brought them invitations to back up renowned sambistas, ultimately promoting the group's reputation throughout Brazil. The quintet has accompanied artists like Walter Alfaiate, Carlinhos Vergueiro, Nei Lopes, Wilson das Neves, and D. Ivone Lara in specials on TV Cultura (São Paulo)...
