Several years of work for a result that borders on excellence, this journey through Brazilian lands sung in French is an invitation to travel. Light and magical!
From the shores of Nice to Cannes to those of Rio and Bahia, it’s just a step away.
A dance step? Not necessarily.
For while Sol Tropical doesn’t forget the samba or the futebol, explicitly present in some tracks with stadium or carnival atmospheres mixed with the music, overall the songs on this album invite more to contemplative relaxation than to a fiesta. Although…
“I am French, mas você é brasileira,” the singer exclaims to what we imagine to be a Carioca beauty, under the sax riffs of an unbridled Brasilopolis, which could be heard in Miami and Saint-Tropez as well as in São Paulo.
Recorded over several years on the shores of the Mediterranean and the South Atlantic by a host of musician-friends, brought together by an author inspired notably by documentaries and reports he participated in, these gentle songs bring a relaxing breeze, welcome with the approach of winter.
