I'm fairly new to Capoeira and it's always been confusing to me when to use Palm de Bimba vs Palma de terriero could you maybe elaborate on this for me much appreciated axé
Hi Will, as many things in capoeira, a lot depends on the culture and habits of the group/teacher. The palma pattern often depends on the toque being played by the berimbau. In my school, we play São Bento Grande de Angola (toque) and it fits nicely with the Palma de Terreiro. Other more regional-influenced schools often use Palma de Bimba with the São Bento Grande de Regional/Bimba toque. If you're at a roda, just watch for what the people on the instruments are doing, and how the more experienced people are clapping. Sometimes the lead on the berimbau will even *tap on the cabaça* the pattern they want to hear on palmas. Thanks for your question!
@@musicandmovementarts thanks that helps a lot and I completely understand it varies I was just looking kind of more for a general guideline so your answer is very helpful thank you for example my group is a more regional group but we most often use Sao bento grande de Angola for our rodas
thank you very much! Xx
