Francesca Anderegg and Erika Ribeiro: Images of Brazil
About This Event
Live event at National Sawdust
About Images of Brazil
“Images of Brazil” arrives at National Sawdust as a live classical program shaped around Brazilian sound worlds and the way they have traveled beyond their place of origin. Featured performers Francesca Anderegg and Erika Ribeiro bring a focused, chamber-scale approach that highlights rhythm, color, and the overlap of European concert tradition with Brazilian musical identity. In New York, where Brazilian repertoire is often heard in popular idioms, this kind of framing reads as a small corrective. The result is less postcard than portrait, attentive to detail and context.
