MATHEUS PRADO TRIO : ‘A NIGHT IN RIO’ 8pm Tues 11th Feb @ the MUSE
LINEUP: : Led by Matheus Prado – double bass, Paul Jones – keys, Liz Exell – drums
Matheus Prado leads a terrific Trio that invites us to step into the heart of Brazil for an enchanting evening of Brazilian music and jazz. A special performance, featuring iconic pieces from Brazil’s rich musical heritage – composers Nascimento, Caymmi, Jobim and more – with the added original writing of leader Matheus Prado himself. The programme will include rhythmic samba, elegant bossa nova, the soulful depth of Brazilian jazz and more.
Described by the Jazzman as “exeptional playing..skilled leadership..the trio masterfully captures the essence of Brazil’s diverse musical landscape” (thejazzmann.org). These outstanding musicians conjure an international atmosphere for a February Jazz night in Brecon that is both intimate and inspiring!
