The Luciana Souza Trio is coming to the Sanders Theater on January 22, 2010. The São Paulo-born Souza — with degrees from both Berklee and New England Conservatory — is familiar to Boston audiences for her singular interpretations of the bossa nova tradition. She went on to release a beautiful series of albums on Sunnyside, including her settings of poems by Elizabeth Bishop. Tide is her second, Grammy-nominated, album for Verve, in English and Portuguese, a mix of samba classics, originals, and a couple of adaptations of poetry from e.e. cummings, in English and Portuguese. She comes to Sanders with two players from that album, guitarist Romero Lubambo and percussionist Cyro Baptista.
