NEW RELEASE "Letras ao Brasil" fall 2009:-)
We have been recording this spring and summer and now we are so happy to release our new album with Brasilian/Swedish music. We hope that you will enjoy it!!
LETRAS AO BRASIL presents an intimate setting with voice, acoustic guitar and percussion who delivers the dynamic variation from a gentle whisper to the carnival-feeling of Rio and expressive Afro-Samba from Bahia.
The never-ending possibilities of colors and rhythms from the percussion and the intricate harmonic arrangements lifts forward Miriam Aïdas artistic way of telling a personal story through music.
Letras Ao Brasil contains new-written poetry in Portuguese interpreted from the original master poets from Sweden. On this album we have realized the vision of connecting some of the best Swedish composers and lyricists with the new lyrics of highly acclaimed Brazilian poets Guilem Rodrigues da Silva and Etel Frota. The Swedish dreamy and romantic melodies are given a new flow and a natural sounding smoothness with the beautiful Brazilian language.
Since Miriam..s successful album Meu Brasil (2006), recorded with some of
Rio de Janeiro..s finest musicians, she has continued to explore the Brazilian music in its different facets with the devoted musicians in this group.
Guitarist Mats Andersson, here on the classical 7-string guitar and master percussionist Ola Bothzén are also found in Miriam..s other more dancefloor-music-oriented group A Bossa Eletrica. The extraordinary seven-piece live-act A Bossa Eletrica has made a big name on the Brazilian club-scene and DJs all over the world praise the group for its deep groove and funky Brazilian vibe.
