Buy ticketsBossa nova and Brazilian music legends
Creuza and Toquinho became famous with the legendary album they recorded with Vinicius de Moraes, a poet and one of the creators of bossa nova, in Buenos Aires, in the café concert hall La Fusa in 1970.
Vinicius de Moraes himself explained it: “They were two night sessions that ended at dawn, in a bohemian and very friendly environment, with lots of the most important elements, whisky bottles and beautiful women”.
Creuza and Toquinho will recreate the atmosphere and the songs of that seminal recording, featuring classics such as “Garota de Ipanema”, “A felicidade”, “Lamento no morro”, “Irene” or “Que maravilha”.
