Brazil and the various genres of music from this vast country have greatly influenced Paul Winter’s musical journey. The performance, “My Brazil,” will embrace the gamut of his favorite Brazilian music, including songs by Carlos Lyra, Edu Lobo, and Antonio Carlos Jobim; Afro-samba music of Bahia, in Brazil’s northeast; carnival songs from Rio; and music of Brazil’s great composer Heitor Villa-Lobos.
