Masters of African Accent

At dawn on June 29, all the bumba-meu-boi groups from São Luís head to the São Pedro chapel to praise and thank the saint for the graces they have received. In the Largo de São Pedro, various games are played, the excitement is perfect and the drumming is frenetic. When the toadas [songs] are paused, the players talk among themselves.
