In jazzy arrangements by pianist Jens Lima dos Santos
Nadja Filtzer sings with soul and ‘saudade’ in Portuguese and in her own Dutch translations.
The musicians accompany her on keyboards, guitar, double bass, percussion and drums, with great flair and skill. Their sultry sounds will satisfy your longing for sensual tropical nights.

The intoxicating rhythms of this music will make you get up on your feet and swing. Allow yourself to be swept away by a sparkling waterfall of sound.
