Cristina Branco | vocals, Mário Laginha | piano and conductor, hr-Bigband RETRATO EM BRANCO E PRETO is a composition by Chico Buarque / Antônio Carlos Jobim arranged by Luís Figueiredo Soloists: Mário Laginha, p; Hans Glawischnig, b Live-Recording at hr-Sendesaal, Frankfurt, january 17th 2019 She is considered one of the most successful Fadistas of our time but that’s not the only point why Cristina Branco is so special. The cloo is that she has always had a wider musical horizon. Her early role models were all coming from jazz music: Billie Holiday, Ella Fitzgerald and Joni Mitchell. For her eighteenth birthday her grandfather presents her a record of Amália Rodrigues. That is the point where Cristina Branco discovers the Fado for herself. Today she transforms the Portuguese folklore and makes something very unique starting with the unusual accompaniment of Portuguese guitar, piano and double bass. With this sound Branco interprets a wide mix of songs of different styles on her album "Menina" (2017), composed among others by Mario Laginha. Now the internationally renowned Portuguese pianist orchestrated the music of Cristina Branco for the Frankfurt Radio Bigband. After the 2010 Fado experience with Ana Moura, the encounter with the neo-fadista Cristina Branco ensured a mutual broadening of horizons. Sie gilt als eine der erfolgreichsten Fadistas unserer Zeit und ist doch damit nur unzulänglich beschrieben. Denn Cristina Branco hatte schon immer einen weiteren Horizont. Ihre frühen Vorbilder hießen Billie Holiday, Ella Fitzgerald oder Joni Mitchell. Erst als ihr der Großvater zum achtzehnten Geburtstag eine Schallplatte von Amália Rodrigues schenkt, entdeckt Branco den Fado für sich. Aus der portugiesischen Folklore macht sie etwas ganz Eigenes und singt sie etwa in der ungewöhnlichen Begleitung von portugiesischer Gitarre, Klavier und Kontrabass. Mit diesem Sound interpretiert Branco auf ihrem Album "Menina" (2017) eine breite Mischung von Songs unterschiedlicher Stile, komponiert unter anderem von Mario Laginha. Jetzt hat der international renommierte portugiesische Pianist Cristina Brancos Musik für die hr-Bigband orchestriert. Nachdem die 2010 mit Ana Moura bereits Fado-Erfahrung sammeln konnte, sorgte die Begegnung mit der Neo-Fadista Cristina Branco nun für gegenseitige Horizonterweiterungen. www.hr-bigband.de hr-Bigband: trumpets: Frank Wellert, Thomas Vogel, Martin Auer, Axel Schlösser saxophones: Heinz-Dieter Sauerborn, Oliver Leicht, Stefan Karl Schmid, Steffen Weber, Rainer Heute trombones: Günter Bollmann, Karin Hammar, Christian Jaksjö, Robert Hedemann guitar: Martin Scales bass: Hans Glawischnig drums: Jean Paul Höchstädter Credits: Olaf Stötzler, manager Frankfurt Radio Bigband Lucia Rosu, executive producer Axel Gutzler, sound-engineer Rainer Schwarz, sound-engineer cameras: Jonas Heil, Bernd Romkowski, Jens Benner, David Elias Kar recording manager: Sabine Wiesner techn. production: Max Brandenburger live-streaming: Jochen Hensel project coordinator: Matthias Hohn executive producer video: Nikolas Pieper production manager: Hartmuth Niemczik producer: Manuel Meyer A production of Hessischer Rundfunk 2019
