We now know that Hamburg is the stronghold of German choro music and anyone who doesn't believe this can see for themselves at a roda on the last Sunday of every month in Brückenstern. This thesis is underpinned by the release of the first German album with self-composed choros "CHORA BERLIM", which was released on September 19 by Bayla Records. The Hamburg composer and chorona (Brazilian choro player) Rosa Morena Russa (alias Kateryna Ostrovska) is responsible for the production, which was recorded in Rio, Hamburg and Berlin, together with guitarist and producer João Ferraz from Rio. The record features the accomplished playing of the crème de la crème of the Brazilian choro scene, interwoven with the mastery of choro musicians from Germany. The album has already enjoyed a considerable international response, with enthusiastic album reviews from Japan, Korea, Spain, Holland (and of course Germany 🙂).
This must now be celebrated properly at our Brückenstern breeding ground with a release concert! With us are:
Thomas L'Etienne: clarinet
Bettina Russmann: flute
Kateryna Ostrovska: Cavaquinho
Nikolai Voigt: Guitar 7 Cordas
Roman Sielert: Pandeiro
