After Bossa Nova Project
Brazilian percussionist Rogério Boccato’s After Bossa Nova Project breathes new life into music by great composers from the post–bossa-nova generation, such as Toninho Horta, Egberto Gismonti, Milton Nascimento, and Edu Lobo. With uncontainable, inventive performances grounded in fluid interaction between musicians, his quartet extracts motifs from lesser-known songs to use as a springboard for on-the-spot group compositions.
