Undoubtedly the best night to be in Salvador is Tuesday when the city´s historical Pelourinho district becomes one huge, throbbing, outdoor live music and dance spectacular, but if your itinerary doesn´t allow a Tuesday-night stop-over in Brazil´s original capital city then any night of the week at 8pm you can be dazzled by the passionate and authentic performances of the Balé Folclórico da Bahia (Bahia´s Folk Ballet).
The repertory includes dances with mystical names such as Xaxado and Boi-Bumba which tell stories about African slavery and re-tell legends of indigenous gods.
With its inspired and contagious choreography don´t be mislead by the term "folk ballet" as this 38-member troupe of dancers, musicians, and singers has received international acclaim and prestige having performed in places as famous and far-flung as France´s Maison de la Danse Theatre, Sydney´s Opera House and New York´s City Centre. Be ready to let the magical atmosphere bewitch you and the rhythm move you as the impact and energy are so strong that by the end of the night the whole crowd is up and dancing to the energetic Afro-Brazilian beats.
