About Us

Nove Ponto Nove is a percussion group based in Leoben, Austria. The name of the group was inspired by the parades of samba schools at the carnival in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil:

Our Name

Written in Portuguese, Nove Ponto Nove means literally the score 9.9.
Such kind of score is of special importance for the election of the annual champion samba school.

Who We Are

Most of us in the group attended the Leoben music school, where our “comandante” Christian Riegler gives drums classes. We have fun together playing a repertoire that covers genres such as samba batucada, samba funk, samba reggae and other variants, using percussion instruments such as surdo, tamborim, caixa, agogô and reco-reco.

Where You Can See Us

We enjoy playing at a variety of events, such as festivals, corporate events, birthday parties, and street parades.
  Our beats create a lively, immersive experience that spectators will remember!
