ON MY BOI BUMBA The bumba-meu-boi is one of the richest manifestations of Brazilian folklore, or our culture, and prefer others.
It's kind of popular opera, whose content varies among the countless groups of Bumba-meu-boi existing but basically evolves around the legend of a cattle farmer who had to race, very beautiful, and beloved by all and that even knew how to dance.
Father worked on the farm Chico, Chico also called black, married Catirina, cowboys and Indians.
Catirina becomes pregnant and feels the urge to eat ox tongue. Father Chico is desperate. Afraid of losing their child Catirina waiting, if the desire is not met, decides to steal the ox from his boss to meet the wishes of his wife.

ON THE CYCLE BUMBA-MEU-BOI
Tests begin around the month of May. At that time the "leather" of the ox, which is actually a velvet, is already being embroidered, and can only be seen by people who are being embroidered. It is a guarded secret until the bull is baptized and dedicated to Saint John
Religiosity is present all the time in the play of bumba-meu-boi.
The tests continue until June 13, feast day of St. Antonio, where is the last test. June 23, the day of St. John, the ox is baptized and the new "leather" embroidered and mounted on wooden frame in the shape of a bull, is shown to everyone.
