Bonita

My musical work is entirely focused on the dissemination of Brazilian jazz, that is, I present the whole range of Brazilian music (mainly bossa nova, samba, baiao and choro, among other rhythms) enriched with jazz elements. The album "Bonita" was planned with a lot of love by me and the pianist and producer Klaus Mueller, who also lived in Brazil for many years and also loves Brazilian music. The songs were all arranged by Klaus and the album contains some sambas and a lot of bossa nova, which helped a lot to make this album very romantic.
We are just finishing the production of this project, which was recorded during a short tour in 2018 and presents great tracks by great composers like Cartola, Baden-Powell, Gilberto Gil and Jobim.

The goal of my musical work is to spread Brazilian music and keep it alive in Europe. Brazilian music, especially bossa nova and Brazilian jazz, has lost a lot of importance in the musical scene in recent years, especially in Germany. Yet their enormous poetic expression, the melodic richness of the rhythm, the fantastic harmonies of one of the best music in the world.
In the repertoire are compositions from the 50-70 years.

The target audience is the fans of good music, jazz and world music, but also other people who may have never come into contact with this music.

I am a singer and composer from São Paulo, Brazil, and I have been a full-time independent musician for almost 19 years. During this time I have performed in large venues (jazz clubs, theaters, cultural centers) and festivals, including the Jazz Festival in Switzerland (Festival da Jazz), the Burghausen Jazz Week, the Viva Afro Brasil Festival and the Stuttgart Jazz Days in Germany.
My penultimate album "Pra Voce" was hailed as one of the best albums of Brazilian music in 2014 in Brazil (it competed with over 800 releases) and my latest album "Minhas Raízes" with many original compositions was highly acclaimed by the national media in the German press.

The new album "Bonita" is very close to my heart. Its release has been delayed several times due to the pandemic, and I am very happy to finally share it with you. This album is about self-love and romantic relationships that extend to social and political issues.

To fund the recording of this album, I pooled some income from concerts, my own savings, and gifts from my family.
As an independent artist, I have the freedom to produce and record meaningful and powerful works; however, I know that promoting and marketing my projects is challenging due to limited financial resources. Not having the resources of a major record label, my budget is limited.

With the encouragement of some friends, fans, and supporters on Instagram, if you like what I do, please help me share it with the world. The funds I raise here will be used to complete the production of the album with mixing & mastering, a music video and printing of the CDs.

I know this is a difficult time for many people. So if you can't donate but have read these lines, I ask you to share my music with a friend you think will love it.

We hope to collect 11.000,00 Euro. The money that I collect here will be used to finish the production of the album with mixing & mastering, copyright fees, a live music video of the Band and to print CDs.
