The Carnival of Rio de Janeiro thus became a colorful and festive street parade in which hundreds of people participated wearing cheerful costumes, followed by musical groups formed mainly by drums and other percussion instruments, wind and string.
Finally, as the samba gained popularity, musicians, dancers and composers began to organize themselves in clubs to demonstrate their talent, which gave rise to the birth of the Samba Schools and the great competition for the title of Carnival Champion, which dispute during the last two days of the official parade in the Sambadrome.
