Roda of Capoeira on the beach with Mestre Pastinha and his students 1965

Automatically translated, thank you for understanding.

Capoeira "Roda" on the beach with Mestre Pastinha and his students. Recorded in the 1960s and probably in 1965 (documentary released in October 1965).

Mestre Pastinha appears to the right of the "bateria", with a white suit jacket and an umbrella (closed) in his right hand.

We can identify Mestre João Grande playing with Mestre Vermelho de Pastinha (identified by CM Rouxinol and confirmed by Mestre Genesio Meio Kilo).

We can see a type of "Balão" (at the time it wasn't just in the Luta Regional Baiana that balões were practiced). This projection within a "Chamada" is called "Sereia" or "Aloandê" (Thank you M. Espaguete Elton Cristiano and M. Papel for highlighting this "detail").

Note the way of playing the reco reco. The microphone was probably too close to the reco, and in fact, it is very noisy.

Place: Jaguaribe Beach, Itapuã, Salvador de Bahia. (Thanks to the artist @Nascimento.Dinho e @AberrecapoeiraBimba pela informação, confirmado por Mestre João Grande).
