About Carlos Cardozo
Brazilian multi-instrumentalist/singer, composer Carlos Cardozo delivers an impressive overview of Brazilian samba, bossa nova, forró, funk adding jazz and folkloric fundamentals with a hint of Brazilian northeastern rhythms.
Cardozo’s assured and evocative vocals shine throughout his expressive compositions which are enriched by the arrangements contributed by collaborators, producers André Valério and Sammy Barros.
Also an exceptional cavaquinho player, Cardozo has altered Canada’s Brazilian music, contributing to numerous and very diverse projects that have featured his abilities as bandleader and instrumentalist.
Tio Chorinho
This ensemble is the first in Canada dedicated to performing Brazilian choro music; a primarily instrumental style originating in Rio de Janeiro that combines popular and classical European styles with Afro-Brazilian influences.
It is the foundation of many modern Brazilian music styles whose infectiousness and universal appeal belies its musical complexity. Founded over a decade ago, , the group performs frequently in Toronto and southern Ontario and has toured in the U.S. Their debut album Chora Brazil earned two Canadian Folk Music Awards nominations (World Music Album of the Year and Instrumental Group of the Year).
