Some members of the 18-strong Oxford Fiddle Group will be on a five day tour of the Algarve. The band consists of five fiddles, an acoustic guitar, bass guitar and a concertina. This is their third visit to the Algarve and they will be performing lively songs, foot-tapping jigs and reels and beautiful slow airs and laments all from the UK, Ireland and the USA. Their performances are always fun yet played with passion.

Earlier this year they performed in Bonn, Germany and have also performed in France, Holland and Ireland, and this summer will be performing in Norway.

Jazz @ The Museum: Art Life Quintet

The Art Life Quintet, alias Sahara Baby Jazz-band, has been a well-known name on the Algarve jazz-scene for many years. From 2001 till 2007, they were trained in Faro by the great bass-player /composer /pedagogue, Zé Eduardo.

For the past four years, the Art Life Babies have been performing and learning all around the globe. Their repertoire of personalised jazz-standards is made up of original music, introduced by each member of the band.

Wenzl is co-founder of the successful NY subway trio, Moon Hooch; Attila, studying in Berlin, is a student of Kurt Rosenwinkel and one of the hottest guitar players on the Berlin jazz-scene; Giotto teaches piano at the Cologne School of Music and is the leader of the Giotto Quartet. Charly has just finished his jazz-bachelor in Amsterdam and is bringing out his first album entitled Canvas Roussel, a mix of jazz and expressive song writing. Eddie is one of the most wanted drummers in Amsterdam and together with Charly they form an explosive swinging rhythm section.

This concert is going to be very exciting and a breath of fresh air, with five mature musicians being re-united at the São Brás Jazz-Club. A MUST for all music and jazz lovers.

Wenzl McGowen - sax (New York)
Atilla Muehl - guitar (Berlin)
