Two for Brazil with Paulinho Garcia & Greg Fishman

TWO FOR BRAZIL was formed in 1998, when PAULINHO GARCIA and GREG FISHMAN were separately invited to play together at a Getz/Gilberto tribute at the Chicago Cultural Center. Though they’d never met, their musical chemistry was instantaneous. Three years later, they won “Best Jazz Entertainers 2001″ at the Chicago Music Awards and have since played together all over the world and have released five CD’s together. Born in Brazil, Paulinho began his musical career at the age of nine as a singer. Today he is also a guitarist, composer, and arranger. Greg began playing clarinet at the age of 12, tenor saxophone at 13, and flute at 19. He is also a teacher and scholar who has published numerous saxophone texts and transcriptions.
