The music of the Amazonian state of Amazonas is not widely promoted around the country, and it’s a pity because it hosts the folk festival of Parintins, second only to Carnival in popularity, that celebrates the musical/choreographic rivalry of two mythical oxen, Caprichoso and Garantido. With strong native influence, it is somewhat comparable to what we find in neighboring Pará.
