| Duduka Da Fonseca June 26th & 27th at Jazz at Kitano Grammy & Latin Grammy Nominated Duduka Da Fonseca Combo featuring Romero Lubambo – Guitar, Martin Wind – Bass, Duduka Da Fonseca – Drums With Special Guest Maucha Adnet - Vocals June 26th & 27th Jazz at Kitano 66 Park Ave. at East 38th St. New York, NY 10016 Shows at 8 pm and 10 pm "Duduka is a fantastic drummer, he has worked with me and I love the way he plays." Antonio Carlos Jobim, Rio de Janeiro, Spring 94 "Duduka Da Fonseca is one of the very few drummers, or perhaps the only drummer, who has found his own unique voice by combining the two traditions. His command of Brazilian and American rhythms and his ability to integrate them so seamlessly is truly innovative. With music in mind, Sincerely, " Billy Hart "Adnet's voice is an emotionally powerful instrument capable of firmness or fragility, depending on the situation. When the tempo slows down and the lights are low, she reveals an attractive vocal wave—more a quiver than out-and-out vibrato—that heightens the intensity in her delivery; this level of directness and honesty transcends mere language when it appears." -Dan Bilawsky, All About Jazz "Maucha and I have travelled the world with the Banda Nova since 1984. She is a marvelous singer. Her voice is deep, rich, mysterious. It makes me long for the Brazilian forest. Maucha is intelligent and comes from a very musical family. She is a good girl, wonderful woman, a great artist" Kiss from your fan, Antonio Carlos Jobim "Guitarist Romero Lubambo may be the best practitioner of his craft in the world today... [his] facility, creativity and energy are in a class all their own." — Jazziz "Romero is the best Brazilian guitarist there is." — Herbie Mann "Martin Wind possesses a beautiful technique, but that is only the beginning of the story. His sound, groove and sense of accompaniment make him one of the up-and-coming players in the music today". Jim McNeely, Grammy-award winning pianist, arranger and composer. "Martin is exceptional for his ability to adapt and be flexible to find the sound that bends to the moment; his instincts are incredible."
