Virtuoso vocalist Mafalda Minnozzi can be found in rotation on WBGO radio, on tour in clubs and festivals in the USA, Europe and Latin America, and now on the stage of the Django. She blurs the line between classic song and improvisational adventure. Her recordings in the USA feature Don Byron, Joe Locke, Dave Liebman, Rogerio Boccato, Helio Alves, Will Calhoun and others while her collaborations in Brazil with Milton Nascimento, Leny Andrade, Guinga and Roberto Menescal will compliment the repertoire with an all-star Brazilian Jazz supporting crew of Mauro Refosco and Eduardo Belo with longtime guitarist Paul Ricci.

“Her voice is gorgeous; lustrous and flawless as she digs into the meaning of each word…. Her voice is so whisper-soft, yet she manages to bring ceaseless dynamics... The songs seem to speak to her in the secret of her heart” - Raul da Gama - LatinJazz.net
