Luca explains: “The beauty of Brazilian culture and its music is something that never fails to inspire and uplift me. It is a reminder that even in the face of adversity, there is always something to celebrate and appreciate. During a recent trip to Brazil, I witnessed a beautiful street parade that was a rehearsal for Carnival. It was a vibrant display of people of all ages and backgrounds coming together to dance, play and sing traditional songs. Despite the challenges the country faces, the people were still smiling and dancing, and it was truly wonderful to witness.
“It is not always easy to find this kind of beauty in our day-to-day lives, but I am fortunate to have music as my passion and my mission. Living in a big city, I have the opportunity to play with and meet people from all over the world, and I consider it a richness that we should all embrace. We should all strive to listen and learn from the diverse cultures around us. Plus let's not forget to find joy in the simple things - a sunset, a loved one's smile, a pet, a phone call from a friend.
“I dedicate this record to Gaetano Leandro (Leo), who I miss dearly. And I share this message with all of you: "Nada para o Carnaval" - Nothing stops the Carnival. Let us keep the passion for beauty alive in our hearts, and always find something to celebrate and appreciate in this world.”
