Band Setups
Grupo janeiro can operate as a trio (guitar, bass, percussion), a quartet (with guest fluatist or guest vocals), or a quintet with all five members showcasing their talents!
The client can also specify the preferred style(s) of music from Bossa, Brazilian Choro, Cuban, Colubian, Latin Jazz, Popular Classics, or any combination of these genres.
Grupo janeiro - trio with guitar, bass and percussion
Grupo janeiro - quartet with flute (alternatively with singer)
Although every event is different and requires specific planning, there are a few general categories that can suitably employ the GRUPO Janeiro...
Eating, drinking and conversing can be enjoyed to the setting of beautiful, non-intrusive latin music. Subtle amplification is used to fill out any size of room, without stifling conversation.
Wedding
Receptions...
An extremely popular choice, for when the party is underway! Songs can be arranged on request.
Parties...
The choice of playing material can be chosen to reflect the mood - from rhythmic samba-style latin jazz, to relaxing classical/latin jazz pieces to create a certain sophisticated atmosphere or to wind down with at the end of the night.
Please don't hesitate to contact us for further discussion regarding your event.
