Arms placed in an upper level (above
the head) and accompanied by finger
snapping or clapping hands.
The bailinhos dance’s steps and the
choreographic marks were identical in
any part of the island, steps more or
less rhythmical by the music sound.

bailinho step performed with a sharp
bending of knees .
27. Bailinho’s choreographic characterization
torso swings, inclinations and twists
characterize and individualize the
bailinhos.
Spatially the bailinhos are executed in a
single circles, a double circles or in lines
with the pairs face to face, vis a vis .
Spatial variations by the frequent
mandador existence (masculine element
that orders the choreographic marks,
like: women inside, turn outside, …).

Bailinhos’s choreographic variants - as many as the

without ever change the rhythm of the dance.

Porto Santo bailinhos - more moderate and slow
choreographic tempo.

36. COSTUMES: between past and present
http://postaisdamadeira.wordpress.com http://postaisdamadeira.wordpress.com/
2010/04/
The primitive Madeiran costumes would be “absolutely identical to those
that were used in the mainland Portugal provinces from where these
elements come (...) Algarve, Alentejo, Trás-os-Montes and Minho.
39. http://sabores-do-atlantico.livre-forum.com/t318-
trajes-tipicos-e-tradicoes
Despite the bright and showy colours of the female costume may have been
influence by the moorish slaves from the north of Africa, Porto da Cruz
(1954b) considers much more likely the influence of the Minho
Portuguese region’s costume, which assumes bright and
showy colours.
Regarding raw materials the privilege lies with the linen and wool, fulfilling
the functions of shelter and lighter covering, but long lasting and resistant.
40. CONCLUSION
The current Madeiran bailinhos, Madeira folk dances, represent the presence
of sociocultural and historical past of the island and its inhabitants. From the
moorish and black cultures as well as the other visitors cultures (English,
French and Portuguese) influences had remained.
The people of Madeira Island had appropriated, assimilated, preserved and
naturally changed the cultural features that have received and adapted them
in their own way.
The music assumes the continental but the style is Madeiran with Arabic
preponderance, (Santos, 1942).
41. CONCLUSION
The entire island uses the same songs, Charamba, Mourisca and Bailinho,
in a widespread Madeiran style.
In bailinhos are perpetuated these ones that resemble the moorish and
black slaves, the Contra-dance and the quadrille and still the most typical
of Madeira, the “run ball”, baile corrido.
