RELEASE DATE

2015 release. Having lived and breathed the music of her native Rio De Janeiro since birth, the souls of the great samba, bossa-nova, MPB and Tropicalia titans resonate in
Clara Moreno
's voice today. Clara's parents
Joyce Moreno
and
Nelson Angelo
are two of those titans, whose own careers have had a colossal influence on the shape and sound of Brazilian music since the 1960s. A reimagining of
Samba Esquema Novo
, the seminal debut album release by
Jorge Ben
(1963), is Clara's spectacular tribute to her heritage, both musically and personally. This fresh take on the album that opened up new avenues for samba and bossa, is Clara's third album release for Far Out Recordings, following the critically acclaimed
Meu Samba Torto
(2007) and
Miss Balanco
(2009). Jorge Ben's
Samba Esquema Novo
introduced an innovative approach to Samba which foreshadowed the coming years of Brazilian music, from bossa to tropicalia. Yet while the album essentially flopped with critics at first, Ben's laid back attitude, humorous spirit and brilliant song writing and arrangement would soon catch on and spread internationally, marking the album as one of huge importance in Brazil's history. No stranger to the spotlight herself, Clara's career began at a very early age, performing in children's choirs for the likes of
Milton Nascimento
,
Egberto Gismonti
,
Originais Do Samba
and
Trem Da Alegria
amongst others. With Clara Moreno's "Novo" version of
Samba Esquema Novo
, she delivers her own audacious charm over the subtle contemporary twist on Ben's classic original, which plays out in the flawless arrangements and production work of
Paulo Malheiros
,
Luís Paulo Serafim
and
Juliana Melo
.
Samba Esquema Novo
marks a renaissance in music, initially infusing samba and bossa nova with the rhythms of their African roots harmony - while perfectly encapsulating the incredible energy of Rio de Janeiro - Clara Moreno does the same again, but it's a completely novel experience. The album is a tour of Jorge Ben's Rio, through the eyes of Clara Moreno, a true modern day carioca carrying the torch of her parent's generation while stating her rightful claim to an original contemporary sound of her own.
