Simone Santos & Trio

Description

Singer and composer Simone Santos has been active in the Swiss music scene for many years. Her artistic work combines Brazilian musicality with a clear, personal expression that unfolds in her own projects, compositions, and selected concert formats. Her voice is at the center of her creative output – warm, narrative, and marked by a deep sensitivity to human emotions. In various formations – including the Santos Quartet, Gafieira Alpina, and Jazz Via Brasil – she has brought Brazilian music to many regions of Switzerland and across Europe. She has performed at the Montreux Jazz Festival, the Sziget Festival in Budapest, as well as in the USA at SOB’s New York and the Global Cuba Fest Miami. With the release of her five most recent singles – four original compositions in a duo with Jodok Hess and a homage to Guinga – she opens a musical chapter that has long been dormant within her. The recordings were made from 2010 as part of the now-dissolved Santos Quartet and were completed in 2023. It is a kind of artistic archaeology: uncovering old traces, rediscovering sound fragments, and gently continuing a story told through inner movement, depth, and those bright, simple moments that shape life. At Moods, Simone Santos presents these five songs – not only as a release but as a lively retelling of their creation. The concert will be a retrospective and at the same time a new beginning: music that has matured over many years finds its place in the present. The audience is invited to travel through emotional landscapes – through depth, silence, joy, and lightness that continue to resonate in each of these pieces.
