A small but well-curated museum dedicated to frevo — the breakneck dance and brass-band tradition that anchors the Recife carnival. Galleries trace the origins of the music in late 19th-century military bands and the development of the dance among capoeira-influenced street performers.
The building hosts free dance classes most evenings and a regular programme of concerts. Even a quick visit gives essential context for the carnival, and the rooftop has one of the best views in Recife Antigo.
