Partido alto is a Brazilian music genre that originated in the 1970s. It is characterized by its upbeat rhythm and lively percussion, often featuring call-and-response vocals and improvisation. The genre is closely associated with the samba and is often performed in a group setting, with musicians playing a variety of instruments such as the pandeiro, cavaquinho, and surdo. Partido alto has a strong cultural significance in Brazil, particularly in the Rio de Janeiro region, and is often performed at social gatherings and celebrations.
