The music

Menescal is connected with the history of the bossa nova movement itself; Caymmi brings his own songwriting tradition, while Patty Ascher’s interpretations draw on jazz and contemporary song. The announcement names “O Barquinho”, “Chega de Saudade”, “Desafinado”, “Água de Beber” and “The Look of Love”.

The accompanying band includes piano, drums, bass and guitar, with musical direction by Marco Pontes, known as Caixote. The evening suits listeners who enjoy melodic nuance, gentle rhythms and hearing how different performers reshape a song.
