Daniela Soledade and Nate Najar -- Love and Bossa Nova

Описание: On Saturday, May 31 The Mainstay welcomes back International Brazilian music star Daniela Soledade and virtuoso jazz guitarist Nate in a show they have titled “Love and Bossa Nova -- an intimate performance of Bossa Nova music”.

The Love & Bossa Nova show has been selling out houses in jazz loving capitals such as Paris and London, in clubs and concerts in North America, and homecoming dates across their native Brazil. The songs, sung in English and Portuguese, sway and swing and gently build into the upbeat with syncopated beats over a samba rhythm.

Daniela’s performances celebrate her family’s rich legacy that stretches over three generations of her family’s influential bossa nova aesthetic. Her grandfather wrote songs that became hits in Brazil. Her father recorded hits as well. In concert, Daniela tells the stories behind some of these songs and the masters of song who composed them.

Nylon-string guitarist Nate Najar has been cited by music critic A. D. Amorosi as “the heir apparent to Charlie Byrd.” Years later, Najar would get the stamp of approval from no less than The Mainstay’s very own Becky Byrd, who said, “There is no doubt that there is a piece of Charlie’s soul in Nate’s mind, heart and fingers Byrd’s.” Nate has appeared numerous times at The Mainstay, often in the company of Chuck Redd.

Their musical partnership is a unique romantic celebration of Brazilian music that showcases Daniela’s irresistible voice, Nate’s guitar prowess and their deep love for the venerable music they embrace.
