One of the world's great jazz singers has a new album. "Abundância" (released in February by Galileo Music), and the tour are an aggregating way for the artist to show herself plural and celebrate her 40 years career. Recorded between Lisbon and Mozambique, the album has musical bridges between the past and the future, jazz and world music, rhythm and melody.
Throughout her career, Maria João has had numerous collaborations with musicians such as Joe Zawinul, Trilok Gurtu, Egberto Gismonte, the Japanese Aki Takase, among many others, and has performed live in the most prestigious venues and festivals in the world.
In Abundância live, Maria João will once again showcase her unmistakable voice, with its unique sensitivity. This is the perfect setting for a passionate performance of unparalleled expressive force, capable of the deepest emotions.
"Maria João is releasing one of her boldest records to date. Forty years on, she's still a delightful and restless music explorer." (SONGLINES)
