Amazônia Jazz Band presents concert featuring music by Gordon Goodwin
The show marks the return of activities at Theatro da Paz. The Big Band prepares a repertoire filled with hits and will also feature the participation of the Pará singer Malu Guedelha.
On this Thursday, the 14th, the Amazônia Jazz Band resumes the concert calendar for the second semester with a special show of music by composer Gordon Goodwin, leader of the Big Phat Band, at Theatro da Paz, at 8 PM.
For the reunion with the audience, the Big Band prepares a repertoire filled with hits and classics from pianist and saxophonist Gordon Goodwin, such as The Jazz Police, Horn of Puente, Samba Del Gringo, among others.
Conductor Eduardo Lima, the principal conductor of the Amazônia Jazz Band, shares that the group is looking forward to meeting the audience and exchanging the usual energy at Da Paz. “The show on the 14th is a special of Gordon's music, the maestro of the Big Phat Band, considered one of the greatest big bands today. “Gordon Goodwin's arrangements are fantastic, especially when played by the Amazônia Jazz Band, adding that Amazonian flavor to these super arrangements,” highlights Eduardo.
The show will also feature the participation of Pará singer Malu Guedelha, who will perform original songs. For her, who has been following the Big Band's shows since childhood and adolescence, it is an honor to share the stage with such talented musicians. “I feel extremely honored to sing with the Jazz Band at Theatro da Paz. This time, I will have the honor of singing with arrangements of original songs, which is extremely valuable, rich, and meaningful to me. It makes me feel like I'm on the right track. It's a mix of butterflies in my stomach and emotion,” details Malu.
Tickets cost R$ 2 and can be purchased starting at 9 AM on the 14th through the website Ticket Fácil and at the box office of Theatro da Paz, with a limit of two units per person.
