Presented in collaboration with Brasil Summerfest

The Bahia-born and North Carolina-based vocalist and instrumentalist Caique Vidal joins us with his band Batuque for a concert of Afro-Brazilian samba, as part of Lincoln Center's ongoing Brazil Week celebration. “Batuque” (pronounced ba-TOO-kee) means "to drum" and that imperative is delivered with an explosive performance that rocks the crowd! A community organizer for the Brazilian diaspora, Vidal began his journey on the streets of Salvador da Bahia, known as “the Black Rome of the Americas”. Playing with Olodum, the founding family of samba-reggae, Vidal has presented the genre’s infectious rhythms and message of empowerment across Brazil, Europe, and the United States. A studied rhythmic and choral arranger, Caique Vidal has shared the stage with musical ambassadors including Susana Baca, Carlinhos Brown, and Gilberto Gil. His most recent album, 2023's Save My Heart, unites the sounds and spirit of reggae, salsa, pop, rock, samba and bossa nova into a riveting dance groove.
