Tulane Brazilian Jazz Ensemble

Uptown Campus

This ensemble focuses on the intersections of Brazilian music with jazz. Bossa nova, samba jazz, baião, choro, ijexá, and many other traditional Brazilian rhythms integrate our repertoire as we explore compositions by Jobim, Hermeto Pascoal, Pixinguinha, Gilberto Gil, and many other giants of Brazilian popular music.
