same percentage would consume port tons, right? there are many elderly people living in the houses here and there isn't enough water and the pipe supply isn't reliable. so we have to load the water onto the donkeys and we also bring them their groceries from me. so for the, for the completion to 0 will earn about 2 euros from elton for the strenuous time she's expected on the mountain top that goes, i have to take the water to the house up there. so i always do it. when i come home from school, he seemed to get some money for it fell out. he was gonna just see a shed the it's a difficult journey with a stubborn donkey. for the place itself is special. the

the new gotta renew is viewed. it's beautiful here which causes the houses and the green after the rain. supergroup the same gun which fuel isn't noise. you can only see it from up here. the bush, when that was really, i think the made it the barrios who's lives here with his family. it's 5 kilometers by foot to the nearest village guy because the

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 on which the main 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 h waiting things. 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 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. teen 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 dean and this is how it should look the yeah, know, put into this 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?

yes. 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. 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 this is obvious, 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 pulse and he lived there and then going to

i've come up with my very own prism for the carnival dell, especially on a boat. it's a kind of mixture of sky reiki and galloping horses as we move up to the deep. mm hm. the cheapest folio. peace roommates jump out of here and like i saw the movie brushing 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 daddy 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, buddy and guitar. we have the best ones here. i'll show you our videos and desire. lee frenz, i'm classic this move in to 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 if i can pay the one. i think the guitar she has is no longer adequate for so do you agree 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. they were key part of kate, 30 and musical culture mean dello, the 2nd largest city in cape bird is the cultural center of the archipelago. the new nose drummers are rehearsing on the soccer field as they do every evening before carnival johnstone's 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 anyway. i the rest of the sessions for dancers

every evening is rehearsal. the pseudo 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 as for some 3 centuries. this speech was the site 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, ending 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. 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 gord se swimming pool, a symbol for means of magazine to symbolize the oldest string instruments and kate, but it goes back centuries and has neither european nor american origins. it has to

have come from the african continent and is mentioned in slave accounts from the time scraps focus each federal government bank mostly along the exact yeah, this happened is no, that's a group of slides flipped to the mountains. they would dump the bad guys above us box a me in nature. they found the materials they needed to build an instrument, then you won't by pointing to the gun. remember, to live, there must be the simple a rep that covers created. so the 1st and k, but most important to you lesson boeing, double e d. the last uh is mostly in

this box. the beginnings of the 1st, specifically k for the music shown. right? cool. the but to go there was still goats in the mountains today, just like back then pasco needs their skin for the sound box. the animals can be too young or too old. to the next part is more difficult. porsche tail hair bow and the strings are made from it because, you know, i saw a time, not here. so you could literally send here

the one for them was a female. so because of the, for now, the instruments can already be given a rough, choose what size as each that i see. so it's important to basketball, that distribution be kept to live and with a, the memory of slavery, the bank and so be sent. it's nadia is also working to keep the cape verde and musical traditional live her next performance date is approaching. she's excited, but it's difficult to practice when her mother wants to see her studying law. about his thoughts straight from her studies to her new compositions and the performance. music is
