Cenário Brasileiro Album

The album Cenário Brasileiro feat. João Bosco

I was very lucky to be born in such a rich country! Brazil has more varities of birds, plants, fruits, styles of music and dances than any other place in the world! I am from Rio, the birth place of samba and choro. My family comes from the northeast where I drank from the pure waters of baião, xote, ciranda, frevo and countless other rhythms. This CD is a mixture of the traditional and the modern, roots and fruits: Itiberê Orquestra Família, formed by incredible young musicians, that are carrying the flag of the “Universal Sound” of the Master Hermeto Pascoal. João Bosco’s music swings like Rio, a bridge in which generations walk, listening to the drumming of “surdos”, the hearts of our ancestors. Come! Take my hand and join me with these great musicians as we embark on this journey…

— Cenário Brasileiro

“This musical garden mixes the rhythm and flavor of the traditional with the modern heat anf heart of Brazil. Celia’s instruments, vocals and unique compositions pulse with a freshness and vitality that stir a rhythm magic. It is as if Malheiros captures the perpetual flirtation of chattering voices deep within the amazon and makes it her song. This must have CD features a cast of incredible Brazilian artists bringing their light to shine on this musical journey. Hear this music “Cenário Brasileiro” (Brazilian Scenery) and travel to the very soul of Brazil.”
