After the 1970s years, when the Bloco Carnavalesco Cacique de Ramos started promoting “rodas de samba” on Wednesdays at its headquarters, a space outside the carnival period was created for composers in order to expose their new songs. This movement called “Pagode” expose many artists and led to the consolidation of the group Fundo de Quintal. The main purpose of this article is to understand how Ubirajara Félix do Nascimento – central figure in this movent – performs the nylon tambourine on the LP “De Pé no Chão” (RCA 1978). The album mentioned is extremely relevant because it was the first time that instruments as repique de mão and banjo with cavaquinho tuning appeared in a record and started to be part of traditional samba ensemble (REIS 2003, SILVA 2013). Due a research through videos, was possible to find specific material related to details of Bira Presidente style, which was almost impossible to perceive just hearing the songs. In this case study, excerpts from the tambourine's execution of three songs were transcribed in order to understand the language present in the style of Bira Presidente. I chose the notation for tambourine developed by Stasi and Ferreira (2019), because with only two line is possible to represent the most used tambourine sounds in urban samba.
