The modern samba that emerged at the beginning of the 20th century is predominantly in a 2 4 time signature varied [14] with the conscious use of a sung chorus to a batucada rhythm, with various stanzas of declaratory verses. There is no consensus among experts on the etymology of the term "samba". A traditionalist view defends that the etymum comes from the Bantu languages. For many years of the Brazilian colonial and imperial history, the terms "batuque" or "samba" were used in any manifestation of African origins that brought together dances mainly umbigada , songs and uses of Black people instruments. The use of the word in a musical context was documented as early as in the "Em casa de baiana", registered as "samba de partido-alto". Essentially made up of two parts choir and solo usually performed on the fly, the partido alto was — and still is — the most traditional sung variant of rural samba in Rio de Janeiro State. During colonial Brazil, many public Catholic events used to attract all social segments, including blacks and slaves, who took advantage of the celebrations to make their own manifestations, such as the crowning revelry of the congo kings and the cucumbis Bantu revelry in Rio de Janeiro. A political and socio-cultural epicenter of Brazil, based on slavery , Rio de Janeiro was strongly influenced by African culture. The success of "Pelo telefone" marked the official beginning of samba as a song genre.
