ABOUT
Brazilian singer Fernanda Cunha features contemporary and traditional compositions.
Fernanda rose out of the rich Brazilian jazz scene to become a rising luminary in international jazz.
She began her career in 1997 and has since toured Brazil, Europe, and North America, performing at prestigious international jazz festivals. She has performed at important jazz festivals like the Aarhus Jazz Festival (Denmark), Wien Jazz Festival (Austria), Jazz à Juan (France), Borneo Jazz Festival (Malaysia), Vancouver Jazz Festival (Canada), among others. Regular appearances at jazz festivals in Canada have helped to carve out a whole new fan base for Cunha's post-bossa groove, and she repaid the compliment with her CD Brasil-Canada, released in 2009.
In 2012, Fernanda celebrated 15 years of her career, and she released her fifth CD "Coração do Brasil", accompanied by her fellow musicians: Cristóvão Bastos (piano), Jorjão Carvalho (electric bass), Zé Carlos (guitar), Jurim Moreira (drums), and special guests; Sueli Costa (piano), Camilla Dias (piano), Marcio Hallack (piano), and Tom Szczesniak (accordion).
The repertoire includes songwriters Antonio Carlos Jobim, Haroldo Barbosa, Antonio Adolfo e Nelson Wellington, Ivan Lins & Vitor Martins, Daniel Gonzaga, Sueli Costa & Luiz Sergio Henriques, Marcio Hallack, Noel Rosa, and an original composition written by her and Camilla Dias.
