Join Brazilian music ensemble, Porto Seguro, for a dynamic afternoon that blends the classical concert hall with the sun-drenched, soulful grooves of Brazil. This Piccolo Spoleto event is a vibrant fusion that promises to bridge the gap between European classical music and the heart of Brazil and will include 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.
Charleston-based Porto Seguro performs Brazilian samba, bossa, and MPB. Local jazz favorite, Alva Anderson's captivating voice is at the heart of the band. Along with instrumentalists, Susan Conant, flute; John Holenko, mandolin; Tom Noren, guitar; John Kennedy, bass; and Bryce Waldron-Noren, drums, the band plays Brazilian favorites and lesser-known but equally terrific tunes to make your toes tap and your heart sing.
