Three-time Grammy nominee LUCIANA SOUZA was raised in São Paulo, Brazil, where she grew up in a family of Bossa Nova composers. A respected composer and vocalist, she defies categories bringing her outstanding musicianship and unique sound to any project. The New York Times has called her "an impressive singer" and a "quite serious composer". Whether performing works by Osvaldo Golijov and Manuel de Falla, singing with the big bands with Maria Schneider and Kenny Wheeler, or performing in small jazz groups, Souza brings something to the music that has been called "transcendental."
