Heart of Brasil

Love your new show and the moment I learned that you produced Ivan Lins's latest album, I was hooked! Keep the music flowing.

- Jesse, Woodland Hills, CA

George, I heard your show for the first time last week on Connect Brazil. As someone who is new to Brazilian Jazz I have to say that I'm very impressed with your knowledge and how you make it easy for me to appreciate it.

Are you on a station here in the Tri-State? I'll search around.

- Denise F, Stamford, CT

Kudos! How intriguing that you production Eddie Daniels's tribute to Milton Nascimento. If there is a more talented jazz clarinetist, I've yet to hear one. Now I'm wondering what the next surprise will be.

- David R, MIlwaukee, WI

I have a large collection of Jazz and Brazilian Jazz albums, from old 78s and LPs to CDs, DVDs and Audiophile Digital. I thought I'd heard it all, until I came across your show. Heart of Brasil has introduced me to new names and styles plus unreleased songs, too? The best!

- Richard S, Chicago, IL

I had no idea that Pat Metheny is so impressed with Brazilian guitarist Toninho Horta. What a talented jazz musician he is.
