Info for Errante

Eine der größten Stimmen Brasiliens meldet sich mit neuer Musik zurück.

Die brasilianische Sängerin aus Porto Alegre ist geprägt von der Música Popular Brasileira. Seit zwei Dekaden ist sie eine in ihrer Heimat, in Portugal und weiteren Teilen Südamerikas sehr erfolgreiche Singer/Songwriterin. Sie wurde mehrfach mit dem Latin Grammy ausgezeichnet. Auf ihren Alben verschmelzen Tropicalismo und Pop, finden Bossa Nova- und Samba-Elemente ihre eigenwillige Verwendung, trösten sich Melancholie und Optimismus gegenseitig, liegen sich Poesie und Folklore in den Armen. So auch auf „Errante“. Akustische Folklore mit besonderen Arrangements, bei denen die Basslinien von Alberto Continentino prägend auffallen, während ihr fragiler Gesang allem einen Hauch Leichtigkeit verleiht.
