BRAZIL&JAZZ

NARA PINHEIRO& MARCIO GUELBER

Nara Pinheiro - flute, vocals
Marcio Guelber - guitar

While the leaves are slowly falling from the trees in October, spring is just beginning in Brazil. The duo Nara Pinheiro (flute) and Marcio Guelber (guitar) bring us this spring breeze into the beginning of winter. Just a few months ago, Nara Pinheiro released the album "Vendaval", with which she won the prestigious Brazilian "BDMG Instrumental" prize, which is regularly awarded to outstanding musicians in the state of Minas Gerais. Nara Pinheiro comes from Juiz de Fora, an important city between Rio de Janeiro and Belo Horizonte. In general, the state of Minas Gerais stands for specific musical traditions that have developed over the last two hundred years amidst the lushly forested mountains and gold mines. At least since the emergence of the "Clube de Esquina" with Milton Nascimento, Fernando Brant and Lou Borges, the music from Minas has been associated with its very own timbres, which differ from the sambas, choros and bossa novas from Rio de Janeiro. The Clube de Esquina in Belo Horizonte developed "Musica Popular Brasileira" in parallel with Tropicalismo, which was founded by Caetano Veloso and Gilberto Gil at the end of the 1960s. However, Nara Pinheiro found her musical role models in jazz - including Hermeto Pascoal. Incidentally, her name is a tribute to the "muse" of bossa nova, Nara Leão. So on October 19, we can listen with anticipation to the new and refreshing sound of the duo Nara Pinheiro and Marcio Guelber.
