reEncanto
Mayra Andrade
In this live performance, the artist interprets 18 tracks from her own repertoire, in restrained and sensitive arrangements, accompanied exclusively by the guitar of her compatriot Djoje Almeida . In the tracks, she explores Cape Verdean traditions through rhythms such as coladeira, batuko, and funaná, rearranging songs from her five previous albums: Navega (2006), Stória, Stória… (2009), Studio 105 (2010), Lovely Difficult (2013), and Manga (2019).
The album, which unfolded over a three-year tour, was recorded in 2023 during the London Jazz Festival at Union Chapel, a neo-Gothic chapel built in the late 19th century in the English capital, which currently hosts artistic performances. With its resonant acoustics, the space has already provided a liturgical setting for shows by artists such as Milton Nascimento, Elton John, Björk, and Amy Winehouse.
