The Cleeve School Samba Band <Sambistas>
"Samba is the legend of life"


The Cleeve School "Sambistas" have been together for about a year and have just returned from a tour of Venice. They performed around Venice lead by their musical director Chris Keir and ended their march with a performance on St.Marks square infront of about ten-thousand people. All the musicians enjoyed the trip and look forward to taking it again soon.

We are all reforming in the new year so nows the time to remember all those beats!
Mr. Keir is taking names. He has new instruments and 40 places but when i checked with him on the 1st day he started taking names he only had 21 places left so sign up quick!

  • Ok.... REFORM COMIN UP?

    Heya guys/fellow samba freaks.
    Hannah Robertson spoke to Keir today about reforming and so did I (I being Robbie Bruce).
    He seems cool with it so long as we run it ourselves. Hannah would be kinda of 'in charge' but it would be like not as serious as Keir took it! lol.
    well put a comment on or write to me or let me know at school if you guys are interested in
    a) reforming at all
    b) whether you would go to practices if we started up again
    c) Whether its just gonna be the people who went to Venice again or whether were gonna let some more people in (possibly new nooby year 10's?)

    So ya hit me back and let me know and we'll try an get the ol' band back together.

  • Mr.Keir

    Mr.Keir introduced all of us to Samba. He is really nice and one of the coolest teachers I know. Samba wouldn't have been the same experience if he hadn't taught it. I think we all owe a big thanks to him for making Samba an avalible oppertunity and making music 'mazin!

    You've definately got smarter costumes than us and Venice is probably cooler than Valkenburg but where's your tunes?
    If you know of any school band friendly Samba events please let us know as we are really keen to play with/near others.
    All the best from KABOUM.
    P.S.Never heard of dahoja or cocophany and its samba reggae, not reggae..still we do Baiao, maracatu,Afoxe, batucada Hip Hop and some Drum and Bass.....tunes listenable on the Kaboum-bear site http://Kaboum-bear.bebo.com

    Awra best
