“Their love of music and samba oozed from every note played, and the final encore & applause reflected the joy given out by them to a very grateful audience” - Ronnie Scott’s
Jazz Samba takes its inspiration and name from Stan Getz and Charlie Byrd's ground-breaking 1962 album, the first ever fully-fledged bossa nova album recorded by American jazz musicians which topped the LP charts on its release and produced its own pop hit single – ‘Desafinado’
Led by John Wilson's star soloist MARK CROOKS on sax and clarinet and the award-winning guitarist NIGEL PRICE, with JOHN CERVANTES (piano), MARIANNE WINDHAM (double bass) and DEMI GARCIA SABAT (drums/percussion), this is a joyous celebration of the blending of Brazilian rhythms, jazz attitude and the majestic compositions of Antonio Carlos Jobim, Joao Donato and Sergio Mendes.
