Terreiro Adalu: Samba Nosso spielt Djavan!

Terreiro Adalu is a vibrant cultural space that brings the roots of Brazilian culture to life in Zurich. Here, the magic of samba, pulsating rhythms, batucada, and a powerful sense of community come together.
At the center is the Roda de Samba: musicians play close together in a circle, while the audience sings along, claps, dances, and becomes part of the action. The boundary between the stage and the audience dissolves—the music becomes a shared experience.
Samba is more than just entertainment. It can bring people together, build strength, and create spaces for connection. It is precisely this Brazilian zest for life that Terreiro Adalu brings to Zurich.
Our next Roda de Samba will feature the music of Djavan. Even before the Brazilian singer and composer takes the stage at Theater 11 in Zurich on September 30, 2026, Samba Nosso is dedicating a special evening at Casi Casa to his songs. For one evening, Casi Casa will become a little piece of Brazil.
In Brazil, this group warm-up before a big event is called "Esquenta": People get together, listen to music, sing, dance, and build up their excitement together.
Samba Nosso performs well-known Djavan classics with great emotion, enthusiasm, and their own unique musical style. The audience doesn’t just stand on the sidelines—they become part of the roda: everyone sings, claps, and dances together, sharing the moment.
A vibrant tribute to one of the most important artists in Brazilian music—and the perfect way to get in the mood for his concert in Zurich.
Vamos djavanear!
