Trio de Sol manages to cross jazz with brazilian rhythmic sensibilities. Samba, Baiao, Maracatu, Bossa Nova and other brazilian rhythms are melded with jazz improvisation to produce a heady, danceable fusion.
Its rich eclectic repertoire reflects a variety of styles of Brazilian samba, choro, baiao and bossa nova and include original material and classics written by masters such Jobim, Edu Lobo, Toninho Horta and Romero Lubambo.
