Huw Warren – Trio Brasil
Date: Friday, 15th April 2016
Time: 7:00 pm
Re-interpreting familiar and less familiar Brazilian classics by Hermeto Pascoal, Tom Jobin, Joyce, Guinga, Egberto Gismonti, Pixinguinha and more… The incredible diversity of Samba, Baião, Forró, Frevo, Maracatu, Choro and lyrical song are all celebrated with an infectious groove heavy approach. Dazzling virtuosity meets deeply lyrical poignancy in music that can make you laugh, cry and want to dance.
“The cascading, long-lined tune of Harmonia sem Chronologia, the glowing romanticism of Desencontro Certo and the glittering dance of Jegue are irresistible”
John Fordham, Guardian
“full of the rhythmic bounce and harmonic subtlety that Brazilian music often blends together in gorgeous new ways. There is some jaw-dropping pianism, a beautiful solo feature for the bass, and constantly energising drums. But mainly, there is a lot of joy in bringing these tunes alive.”
Jon Turney
