To music lovers and critics in Brazil, André Mehmari is a musical wonder and a source of national pride. Come hear one of the greatest musical minds of our time.For his work as a pianist and composer, he won the 2023 Grand Prize awarded by Brazil’s leading music journal. To the ear, imagine a meeting of Mozart and Keith Jarrett in Brazil, Mozart for the intensity of his creation, Jarrett for his relationship to improvisation at the modern piano. His standards, however, are the compositions that comprise what he calls “The Great Brazilian Songbook,” works written at the same time that the Great American Songbook was created, equally rich in lyricism and sublimity. All of the world’s songbooks and literatures are his realm, a borderless inspiration expressed in his compositions and improvisations. The latter takes special form in his solo piano performances where he invites the audience to give him suggestions which, in the moment, he spins into an improvised suite. He invites you to come to the concert with the music you love and offer it for the creation of these one-time-only but forever memorable creations.
