This album is a fantastic Latin Jazz duo album featuring the versatile and skilled performances of Israeli pianist/composer/arranger Alon Yavnai and Brazilian singer/composer/percussionist Joca Perpignan, who won a Grammy Award in the Latin Jazz category in 2008.
The duo has performed at various festivals around the world, including the Savassi Jazz Festival in Brazil, the Red Sea Jazz Festival in Israel, the Jazz Open Festival in Germany, the Provence Jazz Festival in Russia, the Liebe Jazz Festival in Denmark, and concerts at the Tokyo Bunka Kaikan Hall in Japan.
