Product Description

With 10 original songs, recorded live in different formations such as trio, quartet, septet and solo piano, Debora explores many rhythms including choro, bossa, jazz and many Latin and Brazilian rhythms. Debora counts with the special participation of the musicians Thiago 'Big' Rabello and Cuca Teixeira on the drums, Sidiel Vieira and Marinho Andreotti on the acoustic bass, Dani Gurgel on vocalizes and voices, Guilherme Ribeiro on the accordion, Daniel D'Alcntara on the trumpet, and Vitor Alcantara, Carlos Alberto Alcantara and Maurcio Laws de Souza on saxophones, to create a mixture of jazz improvisation and Brazilian songs. The song Pros Mestres is clearly influenced by the work of Cesar Camargo Mariano and Amilton Godoy, while the song Clara da Lua mixtures the Maracatu with Claire the Lune, by Debussy. The song Reencontro, performed by Septeto S.A., transforms a Brazilian waltz into a jazz feeling which refers to Maria Schneider. While Encrenca is a samba de gafieira in which the scat singing of Dani Gurgel duels with the wind instruments, recalling the Brazilian samba jazz tradition of the 60's, Das Amricas is a song which mixtures many different influences of South America. The Brazilian baio is transformed into a jazz fusion in the song Baio da Dona D, and the bossa nova appears in Neneca, a song dedicated do Debora's mother and mother-in-law. At onde a alma leva has a classical melody, with influences of samba and latin music, while Despedida is a melancholic and inspiring choro with lyrics written by Dani Gurgel. The CD closes with a Brazilian waltz called Domingo. This song is solo piano and represent sounds that are still to come.
