ABOUT
Sudamericanto’s unique brand of latin-american music combines Brazilian jazz with South and Central American folk rhythms, taking audiences along a journey through traditions from South America and the Caribbean with a Brazilian jazz twist. Featuring multi-faceted Puerto Rican vocalist/interpreter Madeleine Zayas and high caliber Bay Area musicians/educators coming together to play fresh compositions of Brazilian Jazz tunes, in addition to original arrangements of carefully selected Latin American classics from Argentina, Chile, Perú, Venezuela, México, Cuba, and Puerto Rico.
Music by Víctor Jara, Milton Nascimento, Chabuca Granda, Pedro Luis Ferrer, Andrés Soto, Tite Curet Alonso, Marcos Silva and Madeleine Zayas and much more! We invite you to experience the new sound of La Nueva Canción.
