Formed in 2001, Casuarina is one of a number of Rio de Janeiro groups that are
bringing samba back into fashion. Without sacrificing to the electro trend,
Casuarina offers a renewed samba based on improvisation and the joy of playing.
Casuarina was released in 2005, followed by Certidao in 2007. As Casuarina is
above all a group that excels in improvisation, MTV Apresenta: Casuarina,
released in 2010 and recorded live, is still the best way to discover the group.
