Sax from Ipanema: Paquito and New York Voices



Mosaic Festival Back in Singapore!

First paid concert went was Paquito and New York Voices, NYV are great 4-some jazz acapella. Captivated by their 'Desafinado.mp3', plonked down the dough to get row D seats! Man are they amazing!

Opening set by Vocaluptuous, 1F4M group, pretty good arrangements etc

Next, DA MAN from Ipanema! seen Clarinet (Paquito) and Trombone (Didn't catch his name) played in such a way!!

Wld have prefered NYV to have more fast numbers ala Manhattan Transfer etc. but well, they did a magnificent job. Ending/Standing ovation/Encore were all great!
