Tudo Bem!

Thursday, April 2, 2020 @ 8:30PMThu, Apr 2, 2020 @ 8:30PM

Billy Byrne's, John Street, Kilkenny

Ronan Guilfoyle presents Tudo Bem! - a celebration of the music of Brazil Aleka Potings - vocals Chris Guilfoyle - guitar Leopoldo Osio - piano Ronan Guilfoyle - bass Andre Antunes - drums

The music of Brazil is rich, melodic and above all one of the most groove-laden musics on the planet. Blessed with a long tradition of great composers and songwriters, and a vast range of regional styles, the music has been hugely influential, moving far beyond its own borders to find a place in so many other musical traditions, including jazz and popular music.

Brazilian music has been a passion of bassist and composer Ronan Guilfoyle for many years, and in this group he has assembled some of the finest players in the jazz and Brazilian idioms to play classic Brazilian pieces, known and loved the world over. Outside Brazil, people often think of Brazilian music as being confined to Bossa Nova, but this is only one small part of the huge tradition of Brazilian music and Tudo Bem! explores many of these styles as well as many of Brazil’s greatest composers. Expect Baions, Forros, Partido Altos, Sambas, Xaxados and more, and music by Toninho Horta, Caetano Veloso, Joao Bosco, Chico Pinheiro, Egberto Gismonti, Hermeto Pascoal, Maria Rita and Joyce. Above all expect the joyous, infectious rhythms and grooves of Brazil played with an authentic feel ,and a celebration of one of the world’s great music traditions.

My Blog!
I've started writing an occasional blog - it will deal for the most part with musical stuff. I'm treating it as a kind of musical diary - stuff that strikes me in the course of my musical day, things that I find interesting or annoying, or fascinating, or wonderful, or baffling - things that I talk about with other musicians. Hopefully you'll find something there that might interest you - and please feel free to comment!
Conor Guilfoyle
My brother Conor's site - great jazz drummer and real innovator in the area of applying advanced contemporary rhythmic concepts to Afro-Cuban drumset

Newpark Music Centre
The music school in Dublin that I teach in. It has the only full time jazz courses in Ireland and hosts many visiting clinicians
Vovox Cables
I never imagined that having a handmade guitar cable could make such a difference to one's sound - but it's true! This is the site of a great cable maker in Switzerland
Contemporary Music Centre
A very good resource for Irish contemporary music, CMC are a state funded library and archive for Irish new music. They keep many of the scores for my compositions there
Cd Baby
A very good online CD store that keeps music of many genres, and sells some of mine at a good price!
