The celebrated trumpeter Hugo Alves, founder and artistic director of Orquestra de Jazz do Algarve, played in OJA Trio by Hugo Alves, together with Diogo Russo on piano and Luís Henrique on double bass, for a great Jazz moment in the “Eira” (treshing floor) of Quinta das Alagoas.
The themes to presented, were from the American Standard Songbook: mild popular melodies, in a very simple and acoustic dress, so often used successfully by Jazz players. Several authors will be remembered, particularly Cole Porter and Richard Rodgers, two of the greatest figures of the 20th century in the area. It was a special sunset, in a special place!
