Mario Bakuna & Christophe Bras

Mario Bakuna and Christophe Bras present "Where Rio de Janeiro meets Bahia", an album recorded in Paris that brings together the Afro-Brazilian rhythms of the 'Recôncavo Baiano' and the charm and subtlety of Bossa Nova.

The album is a journey to Rio de Janeiro, the cradle of Bossa Nova, and to Bahia, the city that best represents the powerful African influence in Brazilian music. Mario Bakuna and Edmundo Christophe Bras integrate the rhythmic roots of Brazilian music and its sophisticated harmonies in a very special duo performance - acoustic guitar & voice and percussion - celebrating great Brazilian composers like Dorival Caymmi and Tom Jobim
