THIS IS BOSSA NOVA
Rarely in the 20th century, has the world witnessed such success in so little time and created by less than a handful of composers. A global phenomenon matched only by the John Lennon and Paul McCartney duo with the Beatles.
In just a few years, between 1959 and 1962, Bossa Nova, born in the chic neighborhoods of Rio de Janeiro and spearheaded by pianist Antonio Carlos Jobim and poet Vinicius de Moraes, with the voice of guitarist João Gilberto, has conquered the world, amplified by the adoption by Jazz musicians from the US, such as Charlie Byrd, Stan Getz, and Frank Sinatra, to name a few.
To celebrate this musical phenomenon, Siri House has created an immersive 2-day event with talks portraying the founders of BOSSA NOVA featuring Changton Kunjara, head of musical studies at Rangsit university, live concerts in the garden, percussion workshops for kids and adults alike by TYCOON brand ambassador Didier Mpondo and last but not least, a guest appearance by Grammy award-winner Brazilian percussionist Valtinho Anastacio.
This Saturday 26th and Sunday 27th, we are thrilled to invite friends and families to attend our mini music festival THIS IS BOSSA NOVA, an immersive 2-day event recounting the origins and the beauty of the Brazilian music that conquered the world.
Enjoy interactive talks with musicians who will discuss the legacy of Tom Jobim and Joao Gilberto on Brazilian culture and see how American jazz musicians, such as Stan Getz and Frank Sinatra, literally propelled the genre onto the world stage.
For kids and adults alike, attend a masterclass with TYCOON brand ambassador percussionist Didier Mpondo.
Listen to live acts with a BOSSA NOVA band featuring master percussionist and Grammy Award-winner Valtinho Anastacio in the garden.
Watch the Golden Palm winner of the 1959 Cannes' Film Festival, 'BLACK ORPHEUS' that also immortalized Bossa Nova on screen.
Drink and dance at the closing White Pool Party and churrasco on Sunday late afternoon with a crowd of Brazilian models and artists to mark the end of the festival, featuring DJ Joe Gradante.
