With his strong and well-honed tone of voice, he has traveled to various corners of this great and beloved country, and he can already show his work in Germany, along with Zé Miguel, Joãozinho Gomes and Val Milhomem, as part of the Senzalas group, to launch the CD Senzalas, showing genuinely "amapaense" root music like "Marabaixo (original rhythm of Amapá culture)" and Batuque, a musicality stuffed with a lot of "ginga" to the sound of drums that infects and makes people dance. // // Amadeu Cavalcante, Cantor e Compositor Amapaense, nascido e criado na cidade de Macapá.
