Welcome, and thanks for your interest in Choro Noho 2024, brought to you by Choro Camp New England!

If you are new to choro, you are in for a treat. The genre began to take shape in mid-19th century Rio de Janeiro, where the music of the Portuguese court met that of Afro-Brazilians. Here in the US, a similar process gave us first ragtime, then jazz, and just as these genres are seen as prototypically “American”, so too is choro recognized as uniquely, exquisitely Brazilian.

Every year, Choro Camp New England brings chorões (that is, people who play choro) to the campus of Smith College for a week of study and jamming with masters of the genre. This concert will feature those artists and serve as the grand finale of our week together.

We’ll have more information available and start selling tickets in mid-March. If you’d like to be informed when tickets are on sale, please join our mailing list by jotting us a note at [email protected].

Obrigado! See you in June!
