a very special challenge lies ahead. for the 1st time she's a carnival queen in carnival. the queen's dress plays a central role. it has to be unusual, respect to traditions and have a seat or some means whatever means carnival is fun. but it's also culture and tradition. i'm interested in social equality. having a balance between the winners and losers, best this dresses, catalina's design. it requires a lot of fabric. and much like the responsibility of being queen it's weight. my dress has a metal base. the costume represents the balance between rich and poor.

colossal shaw this but it also has to be a big, sexy yes of course. there is this part. open with pearls. the more beautiful the dress, the better. or posit dentist contract, tina earns good money. the dress will cost around $300.00 euros. being a queen requires a lot of investment. dina has a sewing studio and one of the poorer districts of the city. it's also cloudy, as neighborhood, far from the beach, closer to the mountains. for weeks before carnival, it's all systems go here. dina enters, seamstresses have their hands for making costumes for carnival. dean is stressed.

most carnival costumes are fairly standard, so they don't cost much to queen. stress is a big exception. and so the stress is a job for the boss that dina and this is how it should look the yeah, know, put into the into the chapter. can it be done in time for carnival or yes, yes. that's as hard or easy the hard does it look queenly. this is too much. do

you see? see yes. yes. the um the the circumference of the extravagant dress is recorded on the floor. dina isn't thrilled. she's under a lot of time pressure. every one is relaxed except her sees. it's always the same because everything comes at the last moment just before a carnival, and i only have 4 weeks. the 3 weeks later, there's not much to show yet. first, they try out a model. an employee serves as a substitute queen the

we would there would be enough time before comfortable more or less. the time is running out for new though to use red suit and matching red hat still have to be made for carnival. the band leaders outfit society a able to is on the present in new knows workshop. there was no money for drums or costumes. they create everything themselves, including the music at the kill full. so he lived there, they're going to,

i've come up with my very own prism for the carnival dell 1st. i mean, you both did so kind of mixture of sky reiki and galloping horses that she knew about to you to keep me and go back, choose to jump out of here and look us all the movie brush can visit me right, right. you the right next to this is adrea everett. a cemetery is guitar maker on his settles workshop more now the music of cape bird also serves as the collective memory

of the cape verde ends its central theme. so daddy expresses the melancholy and yearning for a home so by those who had to leave their country due to poverty before the 1st performance of her new morning songs cloudy a wants to give her old guitar an overall on the set of the guitar maker is not very impressed with her plastic backed instrument. you need to re okay, buddy and guitar. we have the best ones here. i'll show you our most message and desire be friends in plastic. this movement on what you thought. somebody else may i try one, a cloudy. i can't afford, i'm

a settled guitars, but there's no harm dreaming activity back of the, of what i think the guitar she has is no longer adequate for. so do you agree that you working for my kind of music. one of your guitars would be great for a brief time, she gets to hold a really good instrument. it costs around $600.00 curos, far too expensive for cloudy, and she'll be sticking with the old guitar for now. the

new to places somewhat harder, faster with them about to cut us are the drums sections of the carnival parades. they were key part of the cape verde and musical culture in dello. the 2nd largest city in cape bird is the cultural center of the archipelago. new knows drummers are rehearsing on the soccer field as they do every evening before. carnival john sons in the line of some, $150.00 drummers will come together for the event. the neighbors can forget about sleep during these weeks, but most of them are taking part. anyway. i the rest of the sessions for dancers

every evening, it was rehearsal. the noodle is you for it. we were the 1st group to start rehearsing. at this point, i'd say, we'll be ready for the what looks like and i do like the beach was one so place of hard for some 3 centuries. the speech was the side of one of the world's largest slave markets. the under portuguese colonial rule, thousands of africans were chained to this pillar before being sold onto the americas and the caribbean. 2 days, the dungy valia,

the former capital is a world heritage site. after centuries of portuguese colonial rule, cape bird finally became independent in 1975. the the country's modern day capital is about 15 kilometers away. it's called prior, which means beach, like the old capital. it's located on the cape birds,

largest island, santiago, the 70 percent of cape birds population. the creole descendants of both and slaved africans, and the portuguese colonizers. the cape bird, creole language developed from the communication between slaves, engines slavers, both portuguese and creole, still spoken in cape for today around 20 kilometers from the capitalize the tranquil town. oh, so domingos keywords where a past clause lives. he's the last cape verde and who can still build and play the traditional instrument of being slaved. the symbol it's base is a hollow down gourd. it seems to me to see more means less than to symbolize the oldest string instruments in cape, but it goes back centuries and has neither european nor american origins. it has to

have come from the african continent. and as mentioned in slave accounts from the time scraps focuses each file, government bank mostly along the exact yeah, this happened is not with a group of slides flipped to the mountains, they would dump the bad guys. both of us bought a i me in nature, they found the materials they needed to build an instrument, then your pointing to the gun limits lives. there must be the to keep them. so simple a rep that covers created. so 1st in k, u o. as in boy, e d, the last uh, 3 is mostly in this box. the beginnings of the

1st, specifically k for the music shown right, colt about to go there are still goats in the mountains today, just like back then pasco needs their skin for the sound box. the animals can't be too young or too old. the to the next part is more difficult course tail hair to the boat and the strings are made from it says you know i saw a time not here. so you can literally send here

one for them was a fema, so because of the for now the instruments can already be given a rough choose one side of this new policy. so it's important to basketball. the distribution be kept to live and with a, the memory of slavery, the bank and so be sent. sonya is also working to keep the keep dirty and musical traditional live to her next performance date is approaching. she's excited, but it's difficult to practice when her mother wants to see her studying law. claude, his thoughts straight from her studies to her new compositions and the performance . music is
