a dentist and a huge fan of carnival this year. 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 theme or some meaningful 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 waiting. 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's this part open with pearls. the more beautiful of the dress, the better or has a dentist contract. tina earns good money. the dress will cost around $300.00 euros . being a queen requires a lot of investment um, dina has a sewing studio and one of the poorer districts of the city. it's also cloudy as neighborhood farm 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 dressed. most carnival costumes are fairly standard so they don't cost much so 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 advantage and that gives you the chance. can it be done in time for carnival or yes, yes. that's hard or easy. 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. steve. 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 will there be enough time before carnival 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 is obvious. able to is on the present in new knows workshop. there is no money for drums or costumes. they create everything themselves,

including the music. if they don't go full so he lived there and then go 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 as we move up to the deep no cheese bowers. okay. just removed. jump out of here and like i saw the movie bashing visiting me. right, right. you the right next to this is anya ever a cemetery is guitar maker and this settles workshop more not the music of cape

bird also serves as the collective memory of the cape verde ends, its central theme. so dowdy expresses the melancholy and yearning for home, so by those who had to leave their country due to poverty before the 1st performance of her new morning songs. saudi a wants to give her old guitar an overall on the set to the guitar maker is not very impressed with her plastic backed instrument. you need to re okay, 30 and get. all right, we have the best ones here. i'll show you our videos and desire to be friends in classic this movement and what your thoughts on what to talk. somebody else, may i try one, a cloudy,

i can't afford. i'm a settled guitars, but there's no harm dreaming. activity if i can pay the one, i think the guitar she has is no longer adequate for so do you agree? i don't enjoy 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 places somewhat harder, faster with them. about to cut us are the drums sections of the carnival parades. the key part of the cape, 30 and musical culture mean 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 jostens in the lineup. 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 any way,

either as musicians or dancers. every evening is rehearsal. the noodle is you for it. we were the 1st group to start rehearsing. at this point, i'd say, will be ready for the what looks like and i do like the beach was one so place of har for some 3 centuries. this beach was a sight 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 prya,

which means beach. like the old capital. it's located on the cape birds, largest island, santiago, 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. the keywords where pasquals lives. use 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 gord se swimming pool, a symbol a wants to maximize the, symbolize the oldest string instruments and k,

but it goes back centuries and has made the european know are american origins. it has to have come from the african continent. and as mentioned in slave accounts from the time scraps falls, each file, government bank mostly along the exact yeah, this happened is not such a group of slides flipped to the mountains. they would dump the bad guys because a me in nature, they found the materials, they needed to build an instrument, then your one time for you being the gun. remember to live there must be the keep them so simple a replica was created. so the 1st and k, the to month reports to you lesson boeing, double good. the, the, the laptop is mostly in this

box. the beginnings of the 1st, specifically k for the music shown, right? coe about to go there are still goats in the mountains today. just like back then pass, go on, 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. horse tail hair, the boat and the strings are made from it. says, you know,

i saw a time, not here. feet literally and here when for them was a few more so because of the for now the instruments can already be given a rough tunic. what size as each loomed up. so it's important to basketball, the distribution be kept alive and with a, the memory of slavery banking, so be sent. it's nadia is also working to keep the keep dirty and musical tradition alive. 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

for me is offering it won't go back for my part. i didn't. if i was more now, i can't allow us to lose our roots interest. that's why i sing more than a lot of, you know, it's difficult to make a living for music. things are extremely expensive. a square the socialism is got us take the price of a loaf of bread recently and shut up from $150.00 to $250.00. your school knows the equivalent of around 2 euros. 50 o loaf of bread is often too expensive to buy. hello. do you have some cookies or conflicts? yes, sure. or anything else t cookies. thank you. the sound. yeah. and make sure to leave some cut too, but for her mother to eat,

when she gets home late in the evening from her job as an accountant toddy is mother doesn't earn much. and most of it goes towards her own. the daughter's tuition fees about a 130 years each month. and it's a constant battle with my mother. she keeps telling me musics, no good, my child. and i tell her, yes it is. use it as a part of me. and then she'll say cloud, you go and study cape virgin, use the one, pay away ill. do you know good of the blue scarf stair done. have you forgotten anything? it's already 9. 15 pm
