An afternoon of Brazilian Bossa Nova featuring the Bossa e Bossa Duo

I'm very excited to host my second Group Muse, this time featuring Kenya Moses on vocals and Paride Pignotti on guitar. The program will consist of Brazilian Jazz - Bossa Nova with music by, but not limited to, Antônio Carlos Jobim, João Gilberto, Stan Getz, Vinicius de Moraes, and Luiz Bonfá.

Here is a video sample of Kenya and Paride playing Eu Sei Que Vou Te Amar: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JC72_lBr44Q

About the performers:

Kenya Moses - vocals
Kenya is a vocalist, music educator and business owner who shares the music of Brazil's bossa nova in her warm and heartfelt sound. Born in the United States, yet connected to her Afro-Brazilian roots, Kenya fell in love with the sounds of Brazil after 15 years performing as a classical vocalist and flautist. Kenya's vocal resonance has allowed her the opportunity to perform throughout the West.
