\n\t\tFounded\t<\/h3>\n\n\n\t

Founded in February 2007 in Itaim Paulista, in the East Zone of S\u00e3o Paulo, Pegada de Gorila<\/strong> has built its trajectory around samba and choro as living languages, deeply connected to territory, memory, and collective experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\t

The group emerged from weekly samba circles held at the rehearsal space of G.R.E.S. Unidos de Santa B\u00e1rbara, a setting where musical practice was consolidated as a space for gathering, learning, and cultural formation.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
