This came out pretty nice. I sat on the grass about ten feet from the speaker stack. You can hear birds chirping, and light discussion/child noises at points, but it's pretty consistant. This was a cool workshop, where the artists spoke of the hard times and good times that got them through, with a good deal of info about their backgrounds. I apologize for not knowing the Lutchinha titles - she says the titles, and I could guess, but I don't want to screw 'em up. I'll post the rest of my recordings from the day shortly. I took a ton of photos, and included a few of the better ones.

Enjoy!
