The reception for Primavera – the first album by the duo of vocalist Sara Serpa & guitarist André Matos – was rapturous, with reviews for the 2014 release using such apt descriptors as “enchanting” (The New Yorker), “breathtaking” (JazzTimes) and “spellbinding” (All About Jazz). The New York Times praised Primavera at length, calling the album “calmly stunning” while adding that the pair’s music “capitalizes on their many affinities: as limber improvisers, as thoughtful composers, as selfless ensemble players, and as internationalists hailing originally from Portugal (by way of Boston and New York)… Primavera is gemlike in its beauty and precision.” Now, Serpa & Matos present their second duo album, the gorgeous All the Dreams, to be released Aug. 5, 2016, via Sunnyside Records.
