About this Event
Choro das 3 is a trio of three sisters from São Paulo, Brazil, who are highly regarded as some of the best choro musicians in the world. Choro is an enormously appealing musical style that originated in Brazil over 100 years ago and is now popular internationally. In Brazil, Choro das 3 has been featured on national television, played for the president, and played for huge audiences at national festivals. They’ve also toured internationally and have released 11 CD’s.
Of the three sisters in the band, (family name Meyer Ferreira), Corina plays flute and piccolo, Lia plays acoustic 7 string guitar, and Elisa, who writes many of their tunes, plays mandolin, clarinet, banjo, piano and accordion. From the time of the band’s founding, their father, Eduardo, played percussion. Tragically, he died from Covid early in the pandemic. This is the band’s first US tour since the pandemic.
