Description

Frevo - Pra Dizer Adeus (feat. Edu Lobo) - Trilhos Urbanos - Canta, Canta Mais (feat. Maucha Adnet) - Casa Forte (feat. Edu Lobo) - Essa Mulher (feat. Joyce Moreno) - Amor Até O Fim - Estórias da Floresta - Caminhos Cruzados (feat. Maucha Adnet) Renowned pianist Renee Rosnes fell in love with Brazilian music as a teenager, from the moment she first heard the iconic voice of Bossa Nova singer Elis Regina. With "Crossing Paths," her brilliant new album for Smoke Sessions Records, Rosnes vividly realizes a decades-long dream: to explore the intersection of the glittering sounds of Brazil and her visionary approach to modern jazz. Slated for release on December 6, 2024, "Crossing Paths" re-imagines compositions by masters such as Antonio Carlos Jobim, Milton Nascimento, Caetano Veloso, and others. The album brings together a remarkable band—saxophonist Chris Potter, trombonist Steve Davis, bassist John Patitucci, and drummer Adam Cruz—while integrating contemporary Brazilian voices, including percussionist Rogério Boccato and vocalist Maucha Adnet. Special appearances by legendary singer-songwriters Edu Lobo and Joyce Moreno further enrich the project.
