# Event Details - **Event Name**: Mario Bakuna Trio – The Golden Age of Brazilian Music: From the Radio Age to Bossa Nova - **Event Start and End Date**: Fri, 17 Jul, 2026 at 07:00 pm – Fri, 17 Jul, 2026 at 08:00 pm (+00:00) - **Event Description**: Internationally acclaimed Brazilian guitarist, vocalist, and composer Mario Bakuna and his Trio present their new concert celebrating the Golden Age of Brazilian music - a journey through the composers who shaped the sound, soul, and identity of Brazil.Mario Bakuna Trio revisit the essence of Brazil through the great Radio Era of the 1930s and 40s, when Ary Barroso’s grand, sweeping melodies helped define a modern Brazilian identity, and Dorival Caymmi’s understated songs brought the landscapes, rhythms, and spirituality of Bahia into the national imagination. Their music laid the foundations of what would become the classic Brazilian songbook. From this fertile ground emerged a second golden moment. Tom Jobim - deeply influenced by the generation before him - transformed samba into something harmonically daring and internationally resonant. With bossa nova, he carried Brazilian music onto the world stage while preserving the melodic richness and emotional depth inherited from Barroso and Caymmi.Through expressive interpretation and virtuosic performance, Mario Bakuna and his musicians illuminate the threads connecting these masters, celebrating the Golden Age not as a single period, but as a living tradition that remains timeless, sophisticated, and profoundly Brazilian. Mario Bakuna on acoustic guitar and vocalsFelipe Oliveira on bassUccio Gaeta on drumsMario Bakuna is a Brazilian composer, arranger, singer, and guitarist currently based in London.
