Comparsa Son del Bajo - ensayo
Some neighbours of El Bajo area in the Old Town get together to practice for the Desfile de Llamadas which is part of the Carnival Parades. Their flag has the green red and white colours of the defunct basketball club Las Bóvedas. The comparsa is all amateur; instruments, costumes etc are paid by the participants, hopefully with the sponsorship of the neighbourhood grocery store or similar businesses. This was a very informal rehearsal: no costumes, and families joining in the fun. The beat is the traditional candombe played by the African slaves in the XIX century.
