O Que Ser?

O Que Ser?

Italys creative piano virtuoso Stefano Bollani meets Hamilton de Holanda, Brazils peerless master of the bandolim, the 10-string mandolin. O que sera is a summery celebration of the joy of music-making, radiating an irresistible enthusiasm, and raising the bar for trans-idiomatic instrumental interaction. Bollani, acknowledged as one of the most prodigiously-gifted soloists of jazz, is matched every step of the way here by de Holanda, and the exchanges between the musicians are frequently breath-taking. Repertoire draws upon the rich heritage of South American music including Jobim, Piazzolla, Chico Buarque, Baden Powell, Ernesto Nazareth and more, plus original compositions by the protagonists. . O que sera was recorded live in Antwerp last August before an audibly-delighted audience at the Jazz Middelheim Festival.
