About
Saxophonist/clarinetist Harvey Wainapel (pronouced WINE-apple) and his quartet ALEGRITUDE will present a panorama of modern instrumental music from Brazil. Since 2000, Harvey has been spending 2-3 months each year exploring Brazil, performing, recording, and researching a wide variety of musical scenes there. The group ALEGRITUDE was born out of Wainapel’s desire to share the joy and beauty of the music he has discovered during these travels. Besides well-known rhythms such as samba and bossa nova, ALEGRITUDE presents other fresh aspects of Brazilian jazz, based on folkloric genres of that country, so rich and varied in its musical traditions...
