Where Bach Meets Jobim - Porto Seguro with Alva Anderson

Where Bach Meets Jobim
Join Brazilian music ensemble, Porto Seguro, for a dynamic afternoon soiree that blends the classical concert hall with the sun-drenched, soulful grooves of Brazil. It's a vibrant fusion that promises to bridge the gap between European classical music and the heart of Brazil. This dynamic afternoon soiree will showcase unexpected connections and shared beauty including works by:
J.S. Bach, reimagined through the syncopated, high-energy lens of Choro.
Heitor Villa-Lobos, the master who famously inserted the Brazilian soul into his classical compositions.
Tom Jobim, whose iconic Bossa Nova sound was deeply inspired by the shimmering harmonies of Impressionist masters like Debussy and Ravel.
