FABIO GOUVEA COLLECTIVE | LATIN & JAZZ

20:30 UHR | KOLLEKTE

"Fabio Gouvea Collective" is an album with 8 original compositions of mine.

It was released in a digital format in 2022.

The compositions were inspired by the landscapes and experiences lived in Switzerland. I moved from Brazil to Basel in September 2019 and since then I have developed several original projects as well as participating in other groups as a side musician.

For the show at Schall und Rauch I prepared a repertoire not only based on the recorded album, but also with standards from Latin American music and jazz.

The band:

Fabio Gouvea - acoustic and electric guitar

Tian Long Lee - harmonica

Hans Feigenwinter - piano

Thiago Duarte - contrabass

Mauro Martins - drums
