Hamilton de Holanda and Gonzalo Rubalcaba - Compatibilidade de Gênios

Listen to this week's show

This week's edition of Caminhos do jazz radio presents selections from Collab, the brilliant new work by two contemporary Latin jazz greats, one Brazilian, one Cuban...

More on the release: "Sony Music Brazil unveils a remarkable musical convergence of Afro-Cuban and Brazilian jazz on Collab, personified by two of its greatest exponents: the renowned Afro-Cuban pianist Gonzalo Rubalcaba, named one of the great pianists of the 20th century (Piano & Keyboard Magazine) and known for his impeccable technique and rhythmic innovation, and the virtuoso Brazilian mandolinist Hamilton de Holanda, whose skill and creativity has revolutionized the instrument and Brazilian music. Equal parts challenging and accessible, Collab is a musical journey through varied soundscapes, with each track offering a new discovery rooted in their common African ancestry." Collab was released in the US on July 19, 2024.  

The YouTube above is João Bosco's "Incompatibilidade de Gênios" (lyric by Aldir Blanc). As a special treat for Caminhos do Jazz aficionados, check the video below of the same tune as performed a couple of years back by the composer, with Hamilton de Holanda and the marvelous Indian classical and world jazz singer (and flutist) Varijashree Venugopal, whose vocal solo is in solfège.
