Songs, rhythms and instruments in Candomblé
Music, memory and learning between generations.

Songs and rhythms
Research on Candomblé Ketu describes atabaque and agogô rhythms as paths of preservation and transmission of memory. Music and dance are part of specific religious contexts.
Not a universal repertoire
Names, rhythms, languages and functions vary. We do not gather complete songs protected by rights nor instructions for performing rites.
Religious learning happens in living together, in orality and in the guidance of people recognized by the community. A page on the internet does not replace initiation nor authorize reproducing restricted practices.
