- Award-winning pianist Antonio Adolfo is among the elite of Rio de Janeiro's jazz scene, where his talent was nurtured with the Bossa Nova movement of the 1960s. Soon, he was touring with legendary Brazilian singers, including Elis Regina and Milton Nascimento.Today, Adolfo is a master of Brazilian song. As a teacher - he's the Latin American Music coordinator for the IAJE (International Association For jazz Education) - and as a world-renowned performer and songwriter. Herb Alpert, Sergio Mendes, Stevie Wonder, Earl Klugh and Dionne Warwick - all have performed or recorded his compositions. Singer Carol Saboya is Adolfo's daughter, and with three solo CDs and several critically acclaimed performances in New York, Miami, and New Orleans - she's well on her way to making her own mark - as her father has done before her. Her debut CD "Dança Da Voz" won Brazil's coveted Sharp Premio award for "Best New Pop (MPB) Singer". Recorded in Miami, "Antonio Adolfo and Carol Saboya Ao Vivo/Live" is a timeless jazz recording featuring songs by Antonio Carlos Jobim, George Gershwin, Dori Caymmi and Brazil's jazz pioneer, Pixinguinha. His previous CD release "Antonio Adolfo and Carol Saboya La e Ca/ Here and There" reunites once again father and daughter in a great combination of Brazilian and Jazz. And the most recent one, CD Antonio Adolfo Chora Baiao is a tribute to the great Brazilian composers, Guinga and Chico Buarque and, besides the music by each of them, includes three of Adolfo's own tunes.

The Jazz Network is exactly what the title suggests, a place where you get to mix and mingle with those who have not only an appreciation for Jazz but a forum to hear new up and coming artists as well. I've hooked up with so many of my old friends that I've lost contact with over the years here and it's been a great place to meet folk, appreciate good music and Musicianship. What an incredible idea!!

He was a soulful reedman, an amazing talent scout for decades and a bandleader of one of the country's most popular acts. Born in 1913, Herman led "Thundering Herds" that were both big draws and well-respected by the likes of Igor Stravinsky. Here are five recordings which still sound fresh today.Edmar Castañeda And Friends On JazzSet
