And in the Scenario Somos de Aqui, at 8:30 p.m., the Cartagena singer who has been giving the most satisfaction lately to the city, Mavica.
In November 2018 and under the heading of 'Brazil Abraça Espanha', Toquinho met Sílvia Pérez Cruz and Javier Colina for the first time.
It happened in the referential and self-managed Rio Verde Cultural Center of Sao Paulo (in the heart of the emblematic neighborhood of Vila Madalena), a multidisciplinary space and nerve center of the most combative and avant-garde Brazilian popular culture for 11 years.
Without any previous encounter, few rehearsals and only some exchanges of ideas regarding the repertoire in the months prior to the São Paulo meeting, the three musicians set up a concert that seemed regularly shot.
There was space for Toquinho to interpret his famous 'Aquarela' alone, among other original compositions, he is the author of hundreds of songs, which have placed him in a privileged place in the history of Brazilian music.
Also for Sílvia Pérez Cruz and Javier Colina to reinterpret some of the songs on their joint album 'En la imagination' (Contrabaix, 2011): 'Ella y yo', 'What would you say about me', 'La noche' and ' If I told you 'they acquired new and surprising life in this format from two who, as Sílvia once said, "is the best formation in the world."
With the permission of the trio, of course, because the concert would reach its zenith by playing Toquinho with Sílvia and Javier Colina great classics of the Brazilian song as 'Chega de Saudade', 'Nao Deixe' or 'Samba Morrer', 'Asa Branca', 'Corcovado', 'Samba in Prelude', 'Eu Sei Que Vou Te Amar' or 'Garota de Ipanema', among others.
The audience sang excited and exciting, celebrating that union that seemed to have been going on for years and that night was happening for the first time, a union that the three artists decided to extend beyond that November meeting in Sao Paulo.
Three musicians, three generations, three unquestionable references, three heavyweights of the song in a broad, beautiful, creative and suggestive sense as few will visit on this occasion The Sea of ​​Music to - perhaps - shrink souls, rediscover fragile and solid ones to a time, finally offer "your best song".
Born in the Portuguese town of Santarem, Ana Moura is one of the great voices of fado;
The diva of contemporary fado.
The recent history of the genre cannot be written without its name.
She has drunk from the sources of Amália Rodrigues, her great spiritual reference, but if something characterizes her is how she instantly transforms any melody to which she gives her voice and turns it into fado.
It is an immediate spark, an emotional explosion, relentlessly directed at the heart of the listener.
With more than 300,000 albums sold, more than a dozen awards, including two Golden Globes, two Amália awards.
His story, perhaps, could not be told in the same way if the Rolling Stone had not appeared in his life, let alone if Prince had not heard it in a Parisian place.
The first called her to collaborate with them in a couple of concerts and the second was so engrossed with his voice and his personality that it was he who gave him the push to fuse jazz with fado.
He has also collaborated with Caetano Veloso, Gilberto Gil or Herbie Hancock.
She is the Portuguese artist with one of the most thriving careers of today.
The most internationally recognized facet of María de Medeiros is that of an actress.
But Medeiros will be at La Mar de Música to show other faces of her frantic creative activity: that of singer and director, in this case documentaries.
La Mar de Cine will make a special place in this edition, as does the musical section of the festival that will host it with the poet and musician Paulo Furtado, the rocker from Coimbra behind the brand The Legendary Tigerman.
Considered today as the Portuguese actress with the greatest international projection, Madeiros is French, polyglot, smiling and never loses her expression of sweet naughty girl.
He speaks six languages ​​and has done almost everything: film actress ('Henry and June', 'Pulp fiction', 'Golden eggs' and 60 other films), but also director ('Captains of April', and several titles more fiction and documentaries), theater, musicals and, lately, singer, lyricist and composer.
“I am an actress who sings and I do it with one foot in the theater and another in music, I like to mix the two things,†she usually says when asked about the discipline she feels most attracted to.
Her music as she is eclectic, she plays fados, salsa, bossanova, flamenco, jazz… The Portuguese actress who forged herself working with filmmakers as essential in film history as Manoel de Oliveira or Quentin Tarantino, or as Bigas Luna, in the case of Spanish cinema, returns to Cartagena with the unique Portuguese musician Legendary Tigerman.
It is the last sensation of the musical avant-garde of Istanbul, a singer that draws on both yesterday and tomorrow, A Gaye Su Akyol, the 'Björk of the Bosphorus'.
His music uses both popular and folk music as well as sound cultures of rock or grunge.
With the release of his first album 'Hologram ÿmparatorluÿu' (2016), Gaye Su Akyol established himself as one of the most attractive young voices in Turkey and one of the most particular explorers of a new sound universe.
Her work as a singer-songwriter, producer and audiovisual conceptualist, simultaneously navigates between a historical past, a hyperconnected present and a future without established scripts.
It grows in a cosmopolitan Istanbul listening to the music icon of Anatolia Selda Baÿcan or Kurt Cobain, in equal measure.
Akyol blows up that boring paradigm facing East / West.
'Istikrarlÿ Hayal Hakikattit' (Glitterbeat, October 2018), which translates as 'Consistent Fantasy is Reality', his second album is deeply poetic;
a very personal and political album, an album that sinks in the heart of the inexplicable experience in the contemporary world.
A visceral and panoramic disk.
It is the new sound of Istanbul.
Mavica, a young artist from Cartagena, has always sought to live her life in the most real and complete way possible.
That has taken him from one side of Europe to another, until he arrives in London, the city where he resides and in which he has shaped his debut EP 'Gone' (Hidden Track Records, 2019).
Under the production of Pablo Serrano (PBSR), Mavica exploits all his creativity in his first work, betting on sounds that reflect maturity and freshness in equal parts.
Having clear influences such as Sufjan Stevens, Bon Iver, Daughter, Ben Howard or Amy Winehouse, Mavica sounds unique and personal, identifiable and memorable.
Elegant pop folk songs that have already led him to step on important stages such as the Mad Cool Festival, the Mercat de la Música Viva de Vic or the Vida Festival.
I Am Mouse is unmarked of the habitual patterns of the infantile thing: letters that empower children to express themselves as they are, wrapped in a mantle of rock, world music and electronics that delights adults and children alike.
A place to discover those other dimensions of music, beyond the purely playful: its power to move, combine and create spaces of understanding.
I Am Mouse, arises from the union of Manu Rubio, musician, educator and psychomotorist trained in the Reggio Emilia method, recognized by UNESCO as one of the best pedagogies for children's stages, and Paul Castejón, multi-instrumentalist composer and producer (Pica Pica - former Sing Games) with extensive experience in the world of advertising and cinema.
The result is a vibrant experience, with passages that go from the tender, to the great to gradually become a nest in our consciences where to start gnawing.
