Dori Caymmi - "Poesia Musicada" CD Release
Esteemed Brazilian
jazz/world music artist "Poesia Musicada" CD Release
Dori Caymmi - guitar/vocals, Bill Cantos - piano &
keyboard, Mike Shapiro – drums, Jerry Watts – bass
Rooted in Bossa Nova with
a sound all his own, Dori Caymmi is a world-class, Grammy-winning jazz
musician. Following in the footsteps of
his iconic father, Dorival Caymmi, his music is a fusion of jazz, pop, and
Brazilian strokes that merge into a soothing sound that echo the history of his
family. After numerous releases and
multiple awards, including the Comenda Tiradentes (the highest honor granted by
the Legislature of the Brazilian state of Minas Gerais), Dori continues to
write, arrange, and play music in his inimitable way, recently releasing Poesia
Musicada, a tender memoir to his late father’s memory -- flowing, acoustic
guitar-based songs: a calling card back to an intimate place and time in Dori’s
artistry.
