GUEST,Betsy Brazilian Folk Music (29) RE: Brazilian Folk Music 20 Oct 10

I've just wrote a load of stuff on a separate thread "Forro" posted today. Just to add the the cavaquino on this thread, I was led to believe on my visits to Brazil this instrument was orginally manufactured from a turtle back and they added the wooden front and the neck. It all sounded plausible - the Portuguese have been ther since the 1500's so I don't suppose your friendly music shop was around then !!.
Cheers
Betsy
