PORT'INGLÊS EUROPEAN TOUR
PORT'INGLÊS EUROPEAN TOUR 24/25
Catch Carmen Souza and her AMAZING band on the road!!!
"The first European jazzwoman with African roots! Carmen Souza is the first to go beyond the traditional repertoire of her country of roots, to assert herself as a vocal JAZZWOMAN, that is, whose musical language and vocal technique belong in the jazz registry....Carmen Souza does what any accomplished jazz artist does: she puts her feet - or rather her voice - on her roots, to offer them branches and foliage that belongs only to her, of her creation. And her vocal technique is breathtaking, for example, when she goes into a scat, this way of improvising onomatopeias that is specific to the jazz register: she walks her voice between the acute and the grave with a virtuosity that belongs only to the greatest."

Carmen Souza's latest album, Port'Inglês, has not been released yet, but two features in the main German Jazz magazines—Jazzthetik and Jazzthing—give a good insight into it.
JAZZTHETIK Magazin wrote:
"When music is described as ""academic,"" it is rarely meant as praise. Terms like "constructed", "sober" and "schematic" are too swinging. Carmen Souza proves with her album Port'Inglês, however, how emotional, joyful and lively music with academic roots can be. " Jazzthetik
