MUSEU DO FORRÓ

The city of Caruaru is intimately linked to the forro culture. In June, this musical madness takes over and the São Joao is the most famous in the Nordeste. The recognition of the forro owes much to one man: the musician Luiz Gonzaga. The forro museum is almost exclusively dedicated to Luiz Gonzaga, the king of the Baião. This musician has largely contributed to the diffusion of this music in all Brazil. You will find many objects that belonged or refer to Luiz Gonzaga: records, personal effects, press clippings..
