Nonprofit entity, the Company Artistic Culture appeared in 1956 at the initiative of the couple Fernando and Adelia Fischer. Built originally to house an orchestra of amateur musicians in the city, under the inspiration of Adelia, early on SCAR had already set their goals to give opportunities for the appreciation of art, which manifested itself in the community by isolated groups of music, theater, choral singing and ballet. With community resources and business participation through the legal incentives to culture, from the early 80s that was just a dream, building a headquarters at the height of artistic production in the city would begin to become reality. In 2003 alone, however, the Cultural Center would be opened, offering the most comprehensive of its kind space in Southern Brazil. With the inauguration of the Cultural Center on May 16, 2003, the SCAR has achieved even more projection, giving impetus to their artistic activities with the establishment of orchestras, theater groups and dance, visual arts workshops, promoting big shows and forming new values and fostering citizenship through social projects.

Here's your soundtrack. Okay, maybe they're not exactly brazillian but their music is awesome and their live shows legendary.
Now, Brazil covers almost half of South America and its Amazon rainforest is the world's largest jungle... which is rapidly getting cut down. The country is basically one giant botanical garden with some bangin' cities on its edges.
Brazil was colonized in 1808 by the royal court of Portugal, which was fleeing Napolean's troops. They didn't stay long, and Brazil won its independence in 1822.
Its biggest city, Sao Paulo, is the financial hub of South America. Brazil is the "b" in BRIC -- Brazil, Russia, India and China. These four were labeled the world's fastest developing large economies in the year 2001.
Brazil is known for three things: amazingly beautiful women, carnival, and Pele -- King of Football, Athlete of the Century, football ambassador of the world and a declared national treasure.
Brazillians can tell foreigners a mile away, by the way their hips move. Samba is built into the soul of brazil and carnival is when it bursts out into twenty-four hour undying explosions of sound on every street.
This picture of mask diving at the Taipus reefs makes me shed hot and salty tears all over my calendar, which is set on "January" right now.
