Boscov’s Berks Jazz Fest brings more than jazz to
audiences each year. The festival organizers are always
looking for something new to share with music lovers.
This year, festival goers can enjoy the energetic sounds
of Carnaval with Minas, a duo which has become one of
the most sought-after Brazilian bands in the U.S.
Orlando
Haddad and Patricia King formed Minas in 1978 at North
Carolina School of the Arts to bring Brazilian music to
stateside audiences. They proceeded to play all over the
eastern US before going back to their musical roots in
Brazil, where they entertained, traveled extensively and
recorded their first album, Num Dia Azul.
Minas is built upon the duo's multiple talents as
vocalists, instrumentalists and composers with an
impressive grasp of the whole range of Brazilian musical
idioms.
At the core of any Minas show are the voices of the duo,
which reflects two decades of vocal and instrumental
blending. Warm and engaging, this magical sound becomes
infectious when Minas adds bass, drums, percussion and
horns to Orlando's guitar and Patricia's keyboards.
Experience Minas and be transported to Carnavale!
