Here we are taking Dindi out for a spin. I'm really looking forward to the evolution of this piece for us. I've just begun to sing a portion of the lyrics in the original Portuguese. Many, many thanks to my Brazilian friends Raquel and Alex for sitting with me and coaxing the rich and complex sounds of their native language out of me! Believe me, they deserve accolades! They are not my first Brazilian friends. Nor are they the first to encourage me to sing in their beautiful language, but it has taken decades for me to attempt this in public. Now, that I've dipped my toe in these foreign waters, I'm emboldened to jump in and take a deeper dive. Beinjinos, Lisa
Hi there! Thanks for stopping by. I'm excited to announce a new musical collaboration! I've joined forces with classical guitarist Jesse Vernier to stage a unique new sound. Pulling from the classical tradition of performance and the insistant freedoms of American jazz, this new duo delivers music honed over decades of individual experience and refined under the Zia sun of Santa Fe.
