Good to Know
No musical experience is needed, just bring your curiosity and energy. This is not a show, it’s a shared moment of rhythm, tradition, and connection.
As Bitori Nha Bibinha is of advanced age, the experience is of course subject to his health and availability, which makes every opportunity to meet him all the more special.
Support this Living Legend
By joining this experience, you also directly support Bitori and his family. Despite his legendary status, he lives in very modest conditions and still works hard every day to care for his large family of 13 children. His wife hand-rolls and sells traditional kan-kan tobacco from their home; a beautiful example of resilience and strength.
