MORE ABOUT FILOMENA CAMPUS:

 

Advocating for the female side of jazz, Campus presents songs inspired by figures and characters from myths, fairy tales, and the world of theatre and performance that have influenced her work. These compositions include new pieces written in collaboration with pianist Steve Lodder and bass player Charlie Pyne, as well as arrangements of tunes from her repertoire and international collaborations. Additionally, she embarks on a solo vocal journey into Brazilian atmospheres.

 

Accompanied by Steve Lodder on piano, Rod Youngs on drums, and Charlie Pyne on double bass and contributing with her sophisticated vocal harmonies and improvisations, the quartet will take you on a passionate journey where music and improvisation intertwine with spoken word, poetry, and comic sketches. A contemporary jazz evening celebrating vocality, improvisation, joy, and playfulness.
