Description
Ao Vivo Live is the first live recording by Portuguese vocalist Maria João and Portuguese pianist Mario Laginha. Their Mumadji project draws together a distinctly intercontinental blend of music, gathering influences from Africa, Brazil and Europe and in fact encapsulates aspects of the tures of all destinations Portuguese explorers sailed to. Mumadji itself means "Portuguese European" and is a Mozambican word from the land of Maria João's maternal ancestors. Mumadji is a melange that reflects Portugal's own position as a tural crossroads and, indeed, many aspects in the Portuguese psyche, where improation is a requirement, where hearts are sometimes filled with fado (sorrowfulness), orat other times mulatto (happiness). Jazz fans may be familiar with João and Laginha from their work with Joe Zawinul and Wayne Shorter.
