Doors open 7pm. Music starts at 8pm.

After a very successful season performing at international festivals and prestigious music venues in Europe, North America, Africa and Brazil, Mario Bakuna performs his latest project Brazilian Landscapes at Karamel.

Brazilian Landscapes sees internationally acclaimed Brazilian guitarist and singer Mario Bakuna and his band reimagine works by celebrated by some of the best Brazilian Jazz composers of all time such as Marcos Valle, Claudio Bertrami, Rique Pantoja, Gilberto Gil, Djavan, João Bosco, Arismar do Espírito Santo, as well as the forrozeiros Dominguinhos and Luiz Gonzaga.

This concert is the synthesis of years of inspiration drawn from Bakuna’s travels across Brazil, where he immersed himself in the country’s rhythmic and harmonic diversity. From the arid landscapes of the Northeast - echoed in the driving choruses of Forró, Baião, and Xaxado - to the African heritage expressed in Ijexá, the popularity of Samba, and the refined elegance of Bossa Nova, Mario Bakuna and his musicians celebrate one of the richest musical territories on Earth.
