Bossa Nova is an indigenous music to Brazilian culture, and what can be more authentic than having a native born master musician show us what it's all about. Such is the case with Sao Paulo born guitarist Marcos Cavalcante. Composer, arranger, and guitarist, Marcos always plays to sold out audiences wherever he appears. So come on out, sit back, close your eyes and imagine you're in Rio for an evening of "Bossa Nova" with Marcos Cavalcante and Mariano Morales.
