Almir Côrtes Trio + Harvey Wainapel at Palms Playhouse

About

The Palms Playhouse proudly presents the North American premier of ALMIR CORTES’ CD “Trançado” (“braided” or “interwoven” reflecting the repertoire’s mix of Brazilian folkloric rhythms with jazz improvisation, as well as the interchange between Brazil and the USA).
