December 13 | “Christmas Jazz by Sofia Hoffmann”, Carlos Paredes Auditorium, Lisbon
Sofia Hoffmann presents her new original album, [In]LOVE, which features the production and participation of singer, pianist, and composer Ivan Lins. Alongside the album release, the new single “O Sonho” stands out, a duet between the two artists, with lyrics by Sofia Hoffmann and music by Ivan Lins.
[In]LOVE aims to explore the concept of Love in its various aspects, with a simpler yet always sophisticated musical language, reflecting the musical experiences that Sofia Hoffmann has gathered over the past years and transformed into songs whose musical genre navigates between jazz, bossa nova, and world music.
This partnership with the veteran Ivan Lins resulted from the shared vision they have about the role of music in emotions and the well-being of people, in the messages that it has the ability to convey, with the hope of adding value to the world, and making it better.
Notably, the first track of the album, “Não Sejas Triste, Amália”, was written by Sofia Hoffmann at the Herdade da Amália (the former holiday home of the fado singer, now converted into rural tourism in São Teotónio), after she learned about her less happy side, which moved her, giving rise to this song. As Ivan Lins is a deep lover of fado (having already written fados, some in collaboration with Carlos do Carmo, for whom he had a great friendship), he greatly appreciated the song and musically transformed it into “bebop”.
This new album, according to Sofia Hoffmann, “invites us to explore the various types of love that exist within us, to relate to others through our best human qualities, and to look at the world with more love.”
