O Doutor e o Canhoto, Júniors.

Repique de anél - 101

After all this talk about Doutor and the repique de anél, perhaps you'd like to see it being played by one of the best young players of this instrument, Luiz Augusto, 24. Accompanying him is another wicked player, Abel Luiz, 26, a left-handed and upside-down mandolin/cavaco player who was inspired by the legendary Canhoto. This is just a little demo they did, with no smoke and mirrors.

These fellas are regulars at the Samba Luzia and Samba do Trabalhador and you can see a post with photos of them here. Please keep in mind that for some reason Luiz didn't tune the repique so it's quite flat. But the basic technique is there.
