Description
Hendrik Meurkens returns to Brazil with 'Samba Tonto'. The album features the legendary drummer and percussionist Portinho
Having taken a break from Brazilian music in recent years to play more bop-oriented jazz dates, Hendrik Meurkens returns to Brazil with 'Samba Tonto'. The album is inspired by the unique style and sound of Portinho, the legendary Brazilian drummer, who came to the United States early with the first wave of Brazilian musicians in the 1960s and features here. 'Samba Tonto' is a mixture of hard swinging Samba Jazz and sensuous ballads. This new album for Cellar Music also features Justus Heher on trombone, Laura Dreyer on flute on tracks, Misha Tsiganov on piano & Fender Rhodes and Eduardo Belo on bass.
