Danilo Brito and André Mehmari – Nosso Brasil (Orpheu Music, 2019)
Two outstanding musicians from Brazil collaborate on “Nosso Brasil.” The album features one of the greatest mandolin (bandolim) players in Brazil and virtuoso classical pianist André Mehmari.
The two musicians deliver delightful melodic pieces where masterful Brazilian traditional music meets neoclassical virtuosity. The interplay and call and response between the two musicians is fascinating and memorable. Nosso Brasil features original material from the two musicians as well as classics by Pixinguinha, Garoto, Zequinha de Abreu, Ernesto Nazareth, Tia Amélia and other distinguished Brazilian artists.
