Alvorada is an invitation to travel by cellist Ophélie Gaillard and her wonderful Goffriller cello, on a musical journey from Spain to South America (Brazil, Argentina, Cuba).
In an exceptional mix of classical pieces and arrangements of the greatest themes of these sultry musics, the cello sings with the bandoneon, dances with the piano, guitar and percussion, and surrenders itself to an intimate love affair with the voices.
All the exceptional musicians (Sabine Devieilhe, Toquinho, Sandra Rumolino, Juanjo Mosalini, Rudi Flores, Emmanuel Rossfelder, Gabriel Sivak...) taking part in the Alvorada journey mesmerise and fascinate us, allowing us to accompany them every step of the way on this dreamlike journey proposed by Ophélie Gaillard.
