People the world over have heard "The Girl from Ipanema", and know of the famed Carnaval in Rio de Janeiro. But what about the roots of Brazilian music? And what is going on the streets today? 

Brazil’s first capital, Salvador da Bahia, is often cited as the birthplace of samba and capoeira—and as an important stronghold of Afro-Brazilian culture. Also, Salvador's Carnaval has made the Guinness Book of World Records as the largest street party in the world.
