DIGIPACK EDITION

Brilliant musicianship and astonishing technical performance are the hallmarks of this collaboration between Anat Cohen, perhaps the finest jazz clarinetist of her generation, and Trio Brasileiro, composed of Douglas Lora and his 7-string violão guitar, Alexandre Lora, panderiro tambourine and percussionist, and Dudu Maia, master bandolim accordionist. This is an inspired meeting, since while Cohen is rooted in jazz and swing, she is continually looking for new challenges, and the Brazilian musicians meet her halfway, making for some excellent music.

The Selection of great choro classics (Santa Morena, Murmurando) and original compositions is finely balanced. We hear what we would expect, but then we are surprised by new pieces that coexist nicely in the recording as a whole. It sounds like a happy gathering of friends in a botequim, or corner bar in a small Brazilian town, where the music flows spontaneously and everyone takes part in the roda, or circle of musicians.
