Members of Grupo das Candeias (l to r) Victor Chaves, Jose Rego, Antonio Braga and Antonio Reis provide traditional music for the procession of last year’s Imperio Mariense Holy Ghost Feast. Following a Mass at St. Michael Church, the procession traveled along Main Street and concluded at the Hudson Portuguese Club for a second day of festivities.

They play various stringed instruments, accordions and percussion. Two years later, a few vocalists including Juvenalia Chaves (no relation) were invited to join the musicians.
