Brazilian and Jazz pianist Helio Alves blends traditional Brazilian sounds with traditional Jazz sounds fluidly and with grace.


A resident of NYC since the '90s, Alves has received high praise as an in-demand sideman with the likes of Joe Henderson, Yo-Yo Ma, Sadao Watanabe, Slide Hampton, Airto Moreira & Flora Purim, Paquito D'Rivera, Joyce, and Rosa Passos to name but a few.

*“Alves has sublety, musicality and a extraordinary facility for improvisation…” “…exceptional melodic improviser…”*

*-Roberti L. Doerschuk, DownBeat Magazine*
