We wanted to let everyone know about a bright young Brazilian artist named Dani Gurgel who has just launched her first ArtistShare project!
Check out Dani's great version of Maria Schneider’s “Estrada Bela,” with her original lyrics! (video below)
In her own words:
“This project is inspired on the series of concerts 'Dani Gurgel and the New Composers' and will feature many young and talented Brazilian composers and musicians, singing and playing along with me.
This project's name, Agora, means Now. But, right below that first meaning, there's gora, a place in Athens, where citizens would gather to make art and democracy. That's what we intend to do: gather people, as much as we can, to make an album that we all believe in. My last album's name, 'Nosso', means 'Ours'. This is not my album, it's ours, and we're doing it together from scratch. I hope you will join me!”
