Elas e o Jazz on Broadway

The world of Broadway musicals and composers such as Cole Porter, Gershwin and Duke Ellington provide the inspiration for the concert that ELAS e o Jazz are bringing to MACAM. Marta Hugon, Mariana Norton and Joana Machado celebrate the joy of singing together and the American songbook, which they reinvent with original vocal arrangements and infectious energy, preserving the tradition of harmonised voices in jazz. Accompanied by the classic backing trio, with Hugo Lobo on piano, André Rosinha on double bass and André Sousa Machado on drums, the three voices sound at ease and determined, inviting us to rediscover the repertoire that has accompanied them since the group’s inception in 2018. Elas e o Jazz released their first album in 2020 and have been a regular feature at jazz festivals and sold-out venues across the country, such as the CCB, Casa da Música in Porto, the Cool Jazz Festival, the Jardins do Marquês Festival and Matosinhos em Jazz, amongst many others.
