This Week’s Top Story

Brazilian Harvest Music Showcase

Autumn does its best to hang on to summer before giving way to winter all too soon. 2022 has been a ‘bumper crop’ year for great Brazilian tunes…

…it’s time to pick a few of the best.

Feijoada’s Savory Story

Delicious, hearty, and satisfying. The story behind this Brazilian stew is as culturally rich as the simmering aromas filling your kitchen. Discover its origins.

We’ll be happy to share the recipe!

Brazilian Warmth With A Jazzy Big Band Vibe

Fans met Antonio Adolfo when Sergio Mendes and Brasil ‘66 turned his song ‘Pretty World’ into a global hit. The hits keep coming for this Brazilian pianist.

Octet And Originals is filled with them.

Bebel Gilberto’s ‘Harvet Moon’

Tucked into Gilberto’s 2014 album Tudo is an autumnal delight. It’s a warm, cozy Bossa Nova cover of a Neil Young song from 30 years ago which Bebel remakes into her own.

It made her play guitar for the first time.

MOSTRA’s Ariani Friedl Honored
