Sprudlende og varm brasiliansk jazz i et brag af en feel-good-koncert

Hvilken slags musik spiller de?
Brazilianske Mario Bakuna spiller med en autentisk nerve, der sender tankerne mod Rios sandstrande badet i varmt aftenlys. Hans kraftfulde stemme, kombineret med hans medrivende guitarspil, kan som få, få en sal til at svinge. Stemningen er livsbekræftende og nærværende. Glæd dig til pulserende rytmer, samt sprudlende samba og bossa nova med alt det bedste fra den brazilianske musiktradition.

Hvad skal jeg vide om dem?
Brasilianske Mario Bakuna har i flere år haft London som sin base for koncerter over hele verden. Han regnes for en ledende figur inden for brasiliansk jazz og er berømt for sin evne til at bruge stemmen næsten som et blæseinstrument – herunder hans karakteristiske "vokal-trompet"-soloer. Samtidig med, at han mestrer et virtuost guitarspil. Bakuna står bag anmelderroste udgivelser som "Where Rio de Janeiro Meets Bahia" og "Brazilian Landscapes".
Gennem sin karriere har han optrådt med prominente navne inden for verdensmusik og jazz som Jean Toussaint, Roberto Pinto og Filó Machado. Med sig på Montmartre medbringer han sine to landsmænd: Den forrygende bassist Romulo Duarte, samt den hæsblæsende og dygtige trommeslager Alexandre Damasceno.
