About Irin\u00e9a Maria Ribeiro<\/h5>\n

As a monumental celebration of her successful and incredibly storied career, Ribeiro entered the studio with a number of her fellow singers and musicians to record 50 Years of Song, her first album of original compositions in her five decades in music. The 15-track collection, written and performed by the Rio de Janeiro native presents a varied selection of songs representing the musical diversity of Brazil\u2019s MPB sceneAs a songwriter, producer, and music director, Irin\u00e9a Maria has been a fixture in the Brazilian music since the boisterous early \u201860s.<\/span><\/p>\n

Her music has been recorded by a notable roster of influential artists and musicians including Zez\u00e9 Motta, Tim Maia, Sandra de S\u00e1, Maria Creuza, Cauby Peixoto, Jane Duboc, and many others. 50 Years of Song calls on the talents of an equally esteemed list of musicians anyone would be honored to have with them in the studio including Kiko Continentino, Itamar Assiere, Antonio Adolfo, Fernando Merlino, R\u00f4mulo Gomes, Marcio Iacovo, Max Dias, Jorge Roberto Martins, C\u00e9lio Balona, and Jean Charneax.<\/p>\n

\u201cIrin\u00e9a Maria Ribeiro is a fantastic songwriter, vocalist, and guitarist in the classic Brazilian popular music tradition (and the mother of Toronto resident, and my friend and colleague, Luanda Jones). Irin\u00e9a came of age during the bossa nova era at the epicentre of the explosion of the new music, Copacabana, studying guitar with Bossa great Roberto Menescal (composer of \u201cLittle Boat\u201d aka \u201cO Barquinho\u201d). Since then she has written many songs that have been covered by top Brazilian artists. She\u2019s only now, at the age of 70, releasing her first album as a solo artist. Having listened to the music and performed it with Irin\u00e9a, I can unreservedly say it\u2019s like discovering a lost masterpiece of Brazilian song, beautiful and very sophisticated on all levels, melodic, harmonic, and lyric.\u201d<\/p>\n
