Paris foi uma das etapas da digressão europeia da brasileira Maria Luiza Jobim. A filha de António Carlos Jobim, o célebre autor de "Garota de Ipanema" esteve em concerto no domingo na capital francesa, na sala "New Morning". Com dois álbuns na manga, uma série de eps e singles, e outro trabalho discográfico em preparação, ala acaba de lançar o single "Go, go, go". A artista preparou também uma versão de "La Javanaise" de Serge Gainsbourg que vai interpretar no seu futuro álbum, na companhia do marido, o também músico português António Zambujo, como ela começa por nos contar. Maria Luiza Jobim, filha de António Carlos Jobim, o celebrérrimo autor de "Garota de Ipanema", conhecido como Tom Jobim, já tem no activo dois álbuns (Casa Branca em 2019 e Azul em 2023), vários singles e EPs. Com novo álbum em preparação e um single "Go, go, go" que acaba de sair, a artista fez uma digressão por Portugal, Espanha, França e Inglaterra, acompanhada do seu novo marido, o também músico português, António Zambujo, que ela convidou ao palco para juntos interpretarem algumas músicas. Em conversa com a RFI em Paris a 19 de Outubro, após o seu concerto na sala "New Morning" ela admitiu que esta digressão indicia trabalhos conjuntos futuros entre os dois esposos, um registo em família. Sendo que 'La Javanaise", música do francês Serge Gainsbourg, cantada por Maria Luiza Jobim e António Zambujo, constará do futuro trabalho discográfico da artista brasileira. O concerto parisiense na sala New Morning valeu a 19 de Outubro muitos aplausos a Maria Luiza Jobim, aos seus três músicos, e a António Zambujo. O jovem casal interpretou músicas de cada um dentre eles e, também, em francês, a sua versão de "La Javanaise" de Serge Gainsbourg. Maria Luiza Jobim canta tanto em português como em inglês, língua em que ela foi alfabetizada, comentando inclusive a sua vivência em Nova Iorque e os seus táxis amarelos e arranha céus. Uma artista que pega também, para as suas letras, nos pequenos prazeres da vida como os jogos de vídeo da Nintendo ou acompanhar a Netflix, nos cheiros de cozinha com "sopa de letrinhas". Ela descarta que a sombra do peso do nome do seu pai seja algo de opressor e, por ora, divide a sua vida entre o Rio de Janeiro, no Brasil, e Lisboa, em Portugal. Maria Luiza Jobim Nós temos planos de gravar no meu disco. O Antônio vai participar cantando "La Javanaise", do Serge Gainsbourg. E é isso. Eu venho de uma família muito musical. Então, é uma como se fosse uma continuação disso. Então, é muito familiar para mim, é natural e gostoso. Vi aqui uma música não composta por si, Portugal, que fala precisamente dessa relação entre vocês dois e Portugal no meio. Portugal agora é o seu porto de abrigo ? Portugal, eu acho que para todo brasileiro tem um senso de muita familiaridade... em Portugal a coisa da língua. E agora eu tou-me dividindo entre Lisboa e Rio. Então, sim. E como é que uma casa. Como é que tem sido essa turnê, então? Passando da Península Ibérica, à França, depois Inglaterra... Essa série de concertos, você convidando o António para cantar consigo ? Tem sido maravilhoso para mim. É a primeira vez que eu estou fazendo. Eu já tinha feito duas turnês anteriores em 2023, depois de 2024. Esse é o terceiro ano que eu venho, mas é a primeira vez que eu toco em Madrid. É a primeira vez que eu toco em Paris. É a primeira vez que eu toco em Londres, então tem muita novidade ! Está sendo muito pessoal também. Emocionante, claro, ter a presença do Antônio comigo. Há muito do "Azul" da "Casa Branca" também, dos vários EPs e singles que surgiram, inclusive o novíssimo. Go Go Go. Você recusa escolher? Continua cantando em inglês, português, tem electrónica, tem bossa nova. Como é que é a música da Maria Luiza Jobim? Hahaha Esse eu acho que esse é mais o seu trabalho do que o meu. Definir a minha música eu realmente não saberia dizer, mas eu acho que para mim é muito natural transitar entre essas duas línguas. Eu vivi muito tempo fora, né? Então eu estudei em escola americana, falo inglês desde muito nova. Então, para mim... O 22.º andar, aquele táxi amarelo... É, pois é, aquilo tudo faz parte da minha história. Então é uma escolha artística. Não é de nenhuma forma uma escolha, nem uma estratégia. É sempre uma escolha. No lugar do afecto mesmo da expressão e da busca da verdade nas coisas que eu escrevo, na poesia e às vezes está em inglês, ora está em português. Você comentou que também aprendeu francês e que tinha uma ligação particular com a França e com Paris. Que fascínio é que tem? O que é que vem buscar aqui? Eu sou completamente apaixonada por essa cidade. Acho que como o mundo inteiro é e eu nunca consegui estudar muito francês assim, eu tenho. Eu amo línguas e eu sou uma curiosa. Mas eu não posso dizer que eu estudei realmente francês. Mas consumo muito à cultura francesa. É por isso, inclusive, que eu escolhi gravar, regravar a música do Serge Gainsbourg, que era uma música que eu, porque na versão dele ele tem essa voz muito. Francesa assim é áspera, né, De rouca bem masculina e eu achei que achava que ficaria bonito fazer um dueto com uma voz feminina com uma coisa mais delicada assim. E então, eu adoro essa música. O mais difícil para si é o nome da sua família e o nome do seu pai. Poder fazer uma trajectória pessoal sem que remetam logo para "A Garota de Ipanema" e para Antonio Carlos Jobim. Olha essa pergunta, assim eu... Eu vi que na sua playlist constam várias músicas do seu pai. Claro, né? Sim, eu passei muito tempo sem tocar as músicas do meu pai. E assim, no começo da minha carreira, justamente para eu conseguir me encontrar a minha identidade, minha verdade artisticamente. Mas eu acho que eu venho conseguindo com o tempo. Assim, eu me sinto cada vez mais à vontade nas minhas composições e nos trabalhos que eu faço. É tanto que hoje em dia eu não tenho nenhuma questão em tocar, tocar a obra dele. Sabe que eu sinto que também tem muito de mim ali, da minha história. Então para mim é muito e muito natural. Faz parte, né? São as músicas que eu cresci ouvindo e ouvindo dentro de casa, sabe? E tem uma relação de afecto muito profunda. Então é isso. Se eu toco o dia a dia porque "Dindi" faz um sentido, tem um sentido de muito afecto para mim, sabe? Mas é isso. Eu vou tocar do meu jeito. E eu acho que eu acho que a coisa do sobrenome. Claro que ela abre muitas portas e é maravilhoso. E minha mãe uma vez falou que é a sombra de uma árvore frondosa, sabe? Eu acho que é bonita essa imagem, porque você vive numa sombra, mas é uma sombra linda, sabe assim. Não é uma sombra opressora. É uma sombra que inspira.

From his early accordion days and forró roots to his global influence, Hermeto Pascoal lived in total communion with sound, inspiring generations worldwide. More than a multi-instrumentalist, he was a true “multi-thing-ist,” turning pianos, flutes, and drums into magic—but also rubber ducks, teapots, rivers, and stalactites. Perhaps shaped by his vision impairment, he treated every style and every sound source with equal respect, creating what he called universal music—not jazz, not strictly Brazilian, but everything at once. This playlist honors his genius and career, eight decades of spreading music, joy, and love. The playlist features also Quarteto Novo; Antonio Carlos Jobim; Miles Davis; Médéric Collignon; Anat Cohen, The Anzic Orchestra; and Huw Warren.

Hvað varð um íslenska hnausþykka og súra skyrið okkar og af hverju er það orðið að aukefnaþeyttri, jafnvel sykraðri þunnri jógúrt sem neytendum býðst nánast eingöngu í matvörubúðum í dag?

What does it take to release 200 digital singles in a single day and earn a Guinness World Record in the process? More importantly, what can that teach us about building a truly sustainable music career?In this episode, I sit down with The Orchestrator, a self-taught saxophonist whose approach to the music business is as methodical as it is inspiring. His philosophy centers on complete independence: owning your masters, understanding every revenue stream, and building passive income that allows you to create art without compromise.The Orchestrator shares his journey from learning Antonio Carlos Jobim classics to developing a bossa nova and jazz-focused catalog that generates sustainable income. But this isn't just about music. The Orchestrator highlights the importance of financial literacy, strategic thinking, and maintaining artistic integrity in an industry that often demands the opposite.Support ProducerHeadIf you value ProducerHead and want to support the show, consider a premium subscription (just $6 per month, even less on an annual basis).

Complete Ownership Creates FreedomOwning your masters, publishing, and trademarks isn't just about money—it's about maintaining the power to pivot and make decisions without outside interference. True artistic and financial independence starts with ownership.2. Diversify Your Revenue StreamsStreaming royalties from distributors represent only a fraction of what your music can earn. Register with PROs, SoundExchange, and Songtrust to collect all available royalties and build sustainable passive income.3.

El 8 de diciembre de 1994 murió en Nueva York uno de los artistas más importantes de siglo XX, un músico que dio forma a un género, que lo mimó y que lo enseñó al mundo creando un legado inmortal y eterno para alegría de todos. Ese día, murió Tom Jobim. Antonio Carlos Jobim llevó la música brasileña a EEUU y de allí a medio mundo, en una entrevista en los años 80, Jobim explicó que era esa cosa que tenía su música que fascinaba tanto a la gente. “Mi música viene del entorno que tenemos. La lluvia, el sol, los árboles, los pájaros... los peces”. La música de Jobim, arquitecto de la bossa nova, transformó la escena brasileña dejando el lamento y la tristeza a un lado para renovar la música desde la alegría, el amor y la esperanza. La muerte de Tom Jobim fue una noticia dura que marcó el final de una época. En 1980 nos había dejado el enorme Vinicius de Moraes, en 1982 murió Elis Regina y en 1991 falleció Stan Getz, músicos con los que Jobim había dado forma a su legado. Esta semana queremos recordar su obra, su figura y su importancia tanto en Brasil como en el mundo y para ello nos acompaña nuestro especialista carioca, Arturo Lezcano.

Rick shares how his lifelong passion for music led him to realize the power of jazz to bring people together across boundaries. On September 11, 2001, witnessing the attacks inspired Rick to found Jazz for Peace. He discusses how the organization works with small community causes to organize jazz events that support their fundraising and outreach goals. Main Discussion Points:- Rick's early years growing up in a musical family and starting piano lessons- Studying jazz and traveling as a musician around the U.S. and internationally - Seeing music's ability to connect with people regardless of background - Being inspired on 9/11 to use jazz to help outstanding causes and bring more peace- How Jazz for Peace partners with small local causes to organize custom jazz events- Raising money, awareness, supporters for community organizations in need Guest Bio: Rick DellaRatta is now considered by many to be one of the finest Singer/Pianists performing today and one of only a handful of Jazz Artists who can make a successful musical presentation to a large audience without having to abandon the true art form of Jazz. Through his life long endeavor to help advance people to their highest potential through the understanding of Jazz as well as spreading peace worldwide through his "Jazz for Peace World Tour", Rick DellaRatta is considered to be an innovator and a visionary.His unique and original piano playing and composing has been compared in print to Chick Corea, Herbie Hancock, Wayne Shorter, Bill Evans, McCoy Tyner, Keith Jarrett, Joe Zawinul, Horace Silver, Oscar Peterson and Thelonious Monk while his signature vocal sound and style has been likened to Chet Baker, Billie Holiday, Joao Gilberto, Ivan Lins, Michael Franks and Antonio Carlos Jobim.Dr. Billy Taylor put Ricks impact in perspective when commenting on Ricks "Thought Provoking CD - he said: "Rick DellaRatta is one of the people who is taking Jazz to the next level".Company Bio:Jazz for Peace is a volunteer-run 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization founded by Rick DellaRatta in New York City in 2002.

Now, I have a whole bunch of actual solutions to actual problems.In today's episode of "Superpowers for Good," I had the pleasure of speaking with Rick DellaRatta, the visionary founder of Jazz for Peace. Rick's insights into the power of music as a universal language for fostering peace and unity struck a deep chord with me and, I believe, with our listeners as well.Rick poetically expressed how "Jazz for Peace, coming through the trees, fills my heart like a celebration." This imagery captures the essence of what Rick has achieved through his work—using the universal appeal of jazz music to bridge divides, inspire hope, and foster a deeper connection among people, irrespective of their backgrounds.During our conversation, Rick recounted an incredibly moving experience in Ghana, where he performed for individuals who had never been exposed to jazz music before. His reflections on their genuine, unfiltered reactions to the music underscored the universal language of jazz. "It's funny because there's a video of it... and you can hear the people reacting to the music at certain points. They would start clapping and make sounds as it affected them, and they would just emote that it was affecting them," Rick shared.This experience in Ghana highlights the raw power of music to transcend cultural and linguistic barriers, offering a glimpse into the potential of the arts to build bridges and foster understanding. Rick's commitment to using his art to "espouse, so to speak, for who you are as a person, your growth as a human being, and what it means to you to make a difference for others" is a testament to the transformative potential of integrating one's passions with a purpose greater than oneself.Rick's journey with Jazz for Peace is a beacon of hope, showing us how the arts can be a powerful catalyst for positive change. As we continue to navigate a world rife with challenges, Rick's work serves as a poignant reminder of the beauty that can arise when creativity, humanity, and a commitment to peace converge.AI Episode Summary1.

People can learn more about Jazz for Peace and connect with Rick through the generic email address info@jazzforpeace.org, and his work focuses on empowerment grants and growing an "empowerment tree."How to Develop Transformative Solutions As a SuperpowerRick DellaRatta's superpower can be encapsulated in the phrase "transformative solutions."Rick's superpower lies in his ability to perceive adversity as an opportunity for improvement, a perspective that enables him to turn challenges into positive outcomes. Initially, this manifested in his talent for "making lemonade out of lemons" when aiding outstanding causes. Over time, this evolved into Rick possessing actionable solutions to significant global problems, garnered from his experiences and the wisdom shared by the numerous exceptional individuals and causes he's encountered.An illustrative story from the interview is Rick's account of bringing together Israeli, Palestinian, and American musicians in 2002 at the United Nations. This endeavor was part of his ongoing effort to address the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, a commitment that has won him over a million impressions on LinkedIn from people interested in his solution to this longstanding issue. This story exemplifies how Rick uses his superpower to foster peace and understanding through music and dialogue.To develop a superpower akin to Rick's, one might embrace humanity, creativity, artistry, and intellectuality, thereby allowing the "cream to rise to the top." By bringing out the best in oneself, one can inspire others, finding common ground even in the most challenging situations. Music, or any universal language of peace, can be a vehicle for creating positive communication and understanding.By following Rick DellaRatta's example and advice, you can make transformative solutions a skill. With practice and effort, you could make it a superpower that enables you to do more good in the world.Remember, however, that research into success suggests that building on your own superpowers is more important than creating new ones or overcoming weaknesses.
