A Black Gold Orchestra celebrates 25 years of trajectory with a special gift for the carioca public: a free seaside festival in Copacabana, bringing together contemporary opera, samba roots and rereadings of the Beatles in rhythm of carnaval.
On 28 and 29 June, the Posto 2 of the little princess of the sea receives the Gold Orchestra Black Valley Festival 2025, with varied and accessible programming. On Saturday (28), at 19h, the opera will be presented for the first time Happy Old Year, adaptation of Marcelo Rubens Paiva's book. With music and libretto by Tim Rescala, director of Julliano Mendes and regency by Rodrigo Toffolo, the montage brings in the cast Johny França (as Marcelo), Jabez Lima and Marília Vargas.
On Sunday (29), the song will continue to take care of Copacabana. At 6 p.m., Mart’nália runs the stage mixing samba and MPB. Then, at 7:30 p.m., the Orchestra joins Sergeant Pimenta's Block for a presentation that turns classic Beatles into Brazilian rhythms, with orchestral arrangements and carnival energy.
The programming is free, free for all audiences, and does not require ticket withdrawal. Just get in early, take a sweatshirt and get carried away by the music.
