@SummerStage Central Park

Brazilians and Portuguese folks are set for a special musical and cultural celebration next Sunday, July 2, at SummerStage in Central Park, when Brasil SummerFest kicks off its 2023 season with a prestigious and unique lineup of established and emerging artists, featuring music, dance and art from both Brazil and Portugal.  Doors open at 5pm as DJ Lara Gerin spins contemporary hits at 6pm, followed by duo Joana Amendoira and Fred Martins, a passionate collaborative work blending Brazilian and Portuguese rhythms. A hybrid of tap dance and live music, the company Music From the Sole will join the stage with their electrifying presentation of Afro-Brazilian influences. The highlight of the night, though, belongs to MPB and worldwide pop star Marisa Monte, who is a multiple Grammys winner, beloved by her fans and considered by many as the greatest Brazilian singer alive. She is currently touring with her impressive, visually stunning and deeply touching production “Portas” which just landed in the US, and will shine among the stars above Central Park in this much anticipated event. This program and other SummerStage events are curated and organized by Bahia-born, New York-based Priscila Santana. Sponsored by City Parks Foundation and the General Consulate of Brazil in New York. Free. INFO: www.CityParksFoundation.org
