    About This Event

    Bebel Gilberto, the Brazilian singer associated with bossa nova and daughter of João Gilberto and Miúcha, presents a performance marking the 25th anniversary of her album Tanto Tempo at City Winery NYC. Her familial connections to João Gilberto and composer-singer Chico Buarque, together with her recorded work, place the concert within ongoing conversations about Brazilian musical heritage and its intersections with contemporary rock and pop.

    About Tanto Tempo

    At City Winery NYC, Bebel Gilberto marks 25 years since *Tanto Tempo*, the album that helped reset the terms of bossa nova for an era of electronic production and global pop circulation. The Brazilian singer, born into a lineage that includes João Gilberto and Miúcha and connected to the broader MPB world around Chico Buarque, brings that history onto a New York stage built for close listening. New York has long served as a meeting point for Brazilian music and downtown club culture; this anniversary set makes that exchange audible. One clear takeaway is how the record’s restraint still reads as a contemporary choice.
