Brazilian Jazz at Garscube - Bearsden
Join Music at the University of Glasgow for a sunny evening of Brazilian Jazz at their Garscube Campus in Bearsden for the first time ever!
About Brazilian Jazz at Garscube - Bearsden
Warm your winter cockles with some exciting bossa nova from a supergroup of musicians from Glasgow.
BRBQ unites three distinctive voices in Scottish jazz, James Brady (trumpet/flugelhorn), Mario Caribé (bass) and Stu Brown (drums/percussion), with one of the UK’s leading interpreters of Bossa Nova and Brazilian jazz, Ed Rice (piano).
Brazilian born Caribé lectures in jazz at the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland, whilst prolific performer Stu Brown spent 3 weeks on a British Council funded residency in Brazil followed by a UK tour with cultural exchange project Orquestra Scotland Brasil. Rice is currently working on a PhD in interpreting bossa nova from the perspective of a jazz pianist, whilst new to Scotland Brady has been studying and playing the music of Brazil for over 10 years. Together, they bring a freshness and authenticity to playing the music of Antonio Carlos Jobim, Hermeto Pascoal, João Bosco and other giants of Brazilian jazz, combining flowing melody, rhythmic grace and open, breathing improvisation. Each artist is internationally in demand in their own right as performers and composers.
This event is for people who live near the Garscube campus, work in it or attend events and facilities on it. It is free to attend. This gig isn't aimed at children, but you are welcome to bring them with you if you think they'll enjoy it. Please get a ticket for them too if you plan to bring them.
Location: Mary Stewart Building, University of Glasgow Garscube Campus, Ilay Rd, Bearsden, Glasgow G61 1QH
