<p> </p>
<div>
<p>WOW! Performing at Jazzmandu 2009 with Trio Urbano was an incredible experience! We met fantastic musicians from all over the world and played at wonderful venues. The most magical performance was the Jazz in Patan show--a musical fusion in the best sense of the word, held in the courtyard of a museum on Patan's Durbar Square. All the Jazzmandu musicians joined forces with local Nepali musicians for an unforgettable evening. Nepal and its people are amazing!</p>

<p>On Saturday, March 8th I was honored to be the guest vocalist of the Chesapeake Orchestra Big Band, conducted by Jeff Silberschlag. It was a real treat to sing some of my favorite Jobim classics, as well as Barroso's "Aquarela do Brasil" with this great big band!
The event was a black-tie gala fundraiser for the River Concert Series in St. Mary's City, Maryland. http://www.smcm.edu/rcs/</p>

<p>I'm very pleased to announce that jazz critic Ken Dryden (All Music Guide, Coda, All About Jazz New York and Hot House) named <i>Tudo Azul</i> the best debut CD of 2007 in the 2007 Village Voice Jazz Critic's Poll!</p>
Susan Pereiratag:susanpereira.com,2005:Post/61643812007-09-24T20:00:00-04:002022-05-29T10:41:53-04:00Rave review from <u>All About Jazz</u>
<p>Dr. Judith Schlesinger of <u>All About Jazz</u> had this to say about <i>Tudo Azul</i>:
" . . . Pereira is an exceptionally gifted musician who sings with grace and perfect pitch, plays with passion and flair, and writes beautifully . . . <i>Tudo Azul</i> (All Blue) refers to the Brazilian saying that “everything’s cool,” and it’s a perfect title for a CD full of sunshine and irresistible grooves . . . a wonderful release, beautifully played and produced, and an absolute must-have for fans of Brazilian jazz."

<i>Tudo Azul</i> was given four stars by Ken Dryden of <u>All Music Guide</u>. Here's some of what he had to say:
"With the incredible output of jazz CDs by new artists in the first decade of the 21st century, it is a challenge for someone to stand out with a debut recording. But vocalist/pianist/composer Susan Pereira, gifted with a beautiful voice, terrific keyboard chops and a knack for arranging, is the exception to the rule . . . Highly recommended!

<p>Sabor Brasil had a fantastic night at New York's famed Iridium Jazz Club for the official <i>Tudo Azul</i> CD release celebration, playing to a packed house that included fans who had traveled all the way from Puerto Rico for the event!
