    I am going with my mom tomorrow,  beautiful Saturday Night.The name of the show is very Brazilian Sem Mim & Ima,  " Without me & Ima " ?! ?!
   I remember living in Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais . I never had a chance to see the group before ! yehaa oh Canada

  " To see the GRUPO CORPO dancing, is like the questions between traffic, nature and culture are all  being answered . It's the diverse " Brasis", the past and the future, the erudite and the popular. Inherited from the foreigners, local color, urban and the suburbanites,  all at the same time being resolved as art. Brazilian art. World's Art " Helena Katz

    Quando se vê o GRUPO CORPO dançando, é como se as questões do trânsito entre a natureza e a cultura estivessem sendo bem respondidas. São os diversos Brasis, o passado e o futuro, o erudito e o popular, a herança estrangeira e a cor local, o urbano e o suburbano, tudo ao mesmo tempo sendo resolvido como arte. Arte brasileira. Arte do mundo.

A late Valentine's

I loved for the first time when I was 11, the guy was 14 and of course he didn't care about me so I started things with a broken heart, then when I was 13 I loved another gentleman that was 16 and things didn't work cause probably he didn't want to be seen around with a " baby " , Loved again when I was 15 he didn't care about me too, and finally when I was 16 I met my real first love, it was a beautiful love story, and sometimes I really miss the way we were good friends, that was a beautiful love that lasted 5 years, that was my first BREAK UP, oh boy that hurts, and I survived!!! ... now, I am 24 I met a beautiful man that I could probably spend a century telling about all his qualities and the beautiful things he makes me feel, but I will assume that we all loved, at least once to know what I am talking about, I wanna make him a garden of love and write beautiful stories in our lives oooo 
Love so necessary for a girl like me with a Bossa Heart <3 nbsp="" p="">

Acid Jazz



Saturday Night in 2010 ( brought the pictures back ) , a little nostalgic after downloading music all night and finding all these new " Acid Jazz " I never heard of before ! 
Koppo, and Nicola Conte are repeating over and over and over on this crazy new itunes I can barely use... 
Nicola Conte is just incredible he uses lots of brazilian beats, and yes he gains my heart for that.
Tomorrow is my favourite beautiful Sunday I am going to wake up and go to Samba class oh beautiful Vintage black and White world , nighty

Choir Magic and Love

Every day I find myself as a new musician, I love Jazz Samba PoP and here I am singing with my choir group, one of the songs " A ceremony of Carols " was composed by the famous english composer Benjamin Britten and so ... Yes Classical !
It was an awesome group to work with, me 23 and after me the youngest person in the group was 35 , I felt like a baby learning how to walk, wish I was singing Soprano, but everyone was so good I had to go alto !!! 
Magical experience !

All the shots are by the wonderful artist *** DAVE BURKE










and the after party pure pure pure celebration !!!!!

Find

I was wondering today why music ? Why am I waking up every Saturday for 2 years at 8am to go see a class about Music History ?! Slowly I find my answers . I realized that my universe gets bigger every page of my book that I turn. My vocabulary my understanding ... Sometimes is hard to see that classical complex world, but that is how music first blew the worlds mind, way before the samba and jazz that I love <3
I am spending the weekend at home, Studying doing laundry and ... Writing songs ! a new fresh experience lol To discover more about me and music .
I wanna hear myself more
love and peace

Nails and Fernando Pessoa

Today could be another normal day, but I woke up somewhere else.
When I opened my eyes this morning everything was different, the heavy weight on my back was gone. I am me again. I felt love and I saw eyes of purity eyes that don't lie hands that don't burn and I got up for the day I feel brave again I am a better warrior I think that red nails can change a lot about how a woman feels, things I can't really explain, but I feel .
We walk in circles until the circle breaks and then there is no choice but pick a different way to go. The cold slowly eats my days, and I am here waiting for something that I am
Not really sure anymore .
The seasons are changing and I am
New every day
