Navigar (“naviguer”) en 2021, Passarinho (“petit oiseau”) en 2023… A travers les titres de ces deux derniers albums, João Selva aura affiché ses ambitions et idéaux : relier avec fluidité et à tire-d’aile les composantes musicales d’un Atlantique Noir qui s’étendrait de la samba carioca au semba angolais, du funaná capverdien au zouk caribéen en passant par la rumba congolaise. Et comme le Franco-Brésilien est un trublion qui a su tirer les leçons de ses aînés Caetano Veloso ou Gilberto Gil, il n’a pas oublié d’incorporer funk, soul ou jazz dans son détonant cocktail. A l’invitation de l’OU, le voilà qui tisse deux soirs en compagnie des cordes Quatuor Una Corda : sur des arrangements hauts de gamme signés Vincent Stephan (du big band L’Œuf, entre autres), leur rencontre promet un mélange aussi subtil que corsé de saveurs harmoniques et de piments groovy.

Navigar (“naviguer”) in 2021, Birdie("little bird") in 2023... Through the titles of these last two albums, João Selva will have displayed his ambitions and ideals: to fluidly and wing-tap connect the musical components of a Black Atlantic that would extend from Carioca samba to Angolan semba, from Cape Verdean funaná to Caribbean zouk and Congolese rumba. And since the Franco-Brazilian is a troublemaker who learned the lessons of his elders Caetano Veloso or Gilberto Gil, he didn't forget to incorporate funk, soul or jazz into his explosive cocktail. At the invitation of the OU, here he is weaving two evenings in the company of the Quatuor Una Corda strings: on high-end arrangements signed Vincent Stephan (of the big band L'Œuf, among others), their meeting promises a mixture as subtle than full-bodied with harmonic flavors and groovy peppers.
