Synopsis

Let Nilze Carvalho’s voice transport you to the warm sands of Brazilian beaches—a glowing sunset in the horizon, a caipirinha cocktail in hand.

One of Brazil’s most captivating artists takes centrestage at Esplanade for her Singapore debut. A master of her craft, her voice and playing style alternates between lively hip-swinging samba rhythms reminiscent of the spirit of the Carnaval do Brasil, and smooth bossa melodies delivered with an imitable, effortless ease that evokes feelings of intimacy and romance.

With a career spanning both decades and continents, Nilze carries the legacy and lineage of singers who have brought the magic of bossa nova, choro and samba to jazz audiences around the world like Guinga and Zeca Pagodinho—both whom she has shared a stage with.

Whether performing beloved classics or original compositions, Nilze brings an authenticity and warmth that is both instantly mesmerising and deeply felt.

Nilze Carvalho is having a Jazz Insights session to share more about her artistry. Find out more.
