Four musical stories

Leci Brandão represents samba and years of work with Brazilian popular culture. Sandro Luiz is associated with contemporary Umbanda music, bringing its stories and musical expression to concert stages.

Tião Casemiro brings experience in preserving repertoire and passing it on to new generations. Luan Pureza represents a younger audience and its relationship with these roots. The evening is conceived as a meeting between a tradition and those taking it forward.

The programme offers an introduction to Brazilian music through its connections with memory, belonging and spiritual culture. It is a concert by the four announced artists at Qualistage.
