The new band, under the artistical leadership by Lars Møller and Magno Bissoli, rehearsed for three days and proceeded to play three concerts, two of them recorded live.
The compositions is mainly made by Jesper Riis, Kasper Wagner, Lars Møller and Magno Bissoli.
During the tour a new album was released. The album conveys the magic shared by these musicians as they traversed cultural boundaries on a journey into music.
The initiative came originally from Magno Bissoli, who by this project fullfilled a long-term dream of gathering Danish based musicians and Brazilian musicians from his big network of excellent artist from both worlds. With help from Ib Jensen, the tour manager of the Swinging Europe - the European Youth Jazz Orchestra and Lars Thorborg from the Copenhagen Jazz House he succeded to establish this new great adventure.
The orchestra has kindly been and is supported by following contributers:
Brazilian Culture Ministry, Nordic Cultural Foundation, Nordea Danmark-fonden, Danish Jazz Federation, The Art Foundation of Denmark, The Danish Conductors Association, Danish Musicians Union, The Danish Art Council and Ben Websters Fond.
