O Som Do Jazz
Welcome


O Som Do Jazz recaptures the grace, energy and spirit of 1960s Brazilian Bossa Nova & samba-jazz. The Tampa Bay-based group features Rio de Janeiro singer Andrea Moraes Manson.  The band's debut recording is Infinita Bossa, a tribute to the 50th anniversary of the birth of Bossa Nova.  O Som Do Jazz is active with performances at the Salvador Dali Museum, Historic Asolo Theatre, Palladium Theater and in special events and festivals.  Check out the band's music and videos!

 

O SOM DO JAZZ: Infinita Bossa
reviews

"Supple, sophisticated sounds from a local outfit well-versed in Brazil's wonderfully diverse music. Take a listen to the lively “Berimbau” and be hooked immediately." - Curtis Ross, Tampa Tribune, March 26, 2009

"O Som Do Jazz does bossa nova the right way without getting lost in musical clichés." - Lissette Corsa, Global Groove Connection, June 2008

"A really classic-styled session of Brazilian jazz vocals --of the sort that takes us back to late 60s work by singers like Elis Regina or Leny Andrade!" - Dusty Groove

"With simple arrangements and a good mixture of solos exhibiting the fine musicians in the group, Infinita Bossa is a nice collection that praises Bossa Nova and its haunting melodies and soothing sounds." - Egídio Leitão, Musica Brasileira, May 2008
