HUW WARREN CHORO PROJECT
NEW PROJECT WITH HUW WARREN PROMOTING HIS BEAUTIFUL NEW SOLO PIANO RECORDING ‘CHORO CHORO CHORO’ IN THE NEW YEAR 2024. HUW SAYS ABOUT THE PROJECT:
Choro has long been close to my heart, and thanks to a RWCMD research grant I was able to investigate in more depth the early (1880’s-1920’s) work of Ernesto Nazareth, Chiquinha Gonzaga and others. The project also includes music by Pixinguinha, Guinga, Hermeto Pascoal and two brand new original pieces written in response to my work on this material. I also made two lengthy interviews with brazilian musicians Jovino Santos Neto and Seu Gaio which will be available to view as part of the project.
