About Me |
|
| Haroldo Mauro Jr. is a Brazilian born pianist with a lengthy career devoted to the performance of jazz and bossa-nova. His album Bossa na Pressão was choosen one of the ten best jazz albums of 2006 by All About Jazz reviewer Dan McClenaghan (go to the article...) . Several other good reviews were written about the CD. Carrying his own native musical heritage, and with a solid bebop-oriented jazz background acquired during his two-decade stay in the US, H. Mauro has developed a style of his own through the combined influences of American and Brazilian musicians such as Barry Harris, João Donato, Bill Evans and Raul de Souza. H. Mauro has attended Berklee College of Music and graduated from Manhattan School of Music with a Master of Music Degree in composition. He is full-time music professor at the University of Rio de Janeiro (Unirio). He splits his time between performing and academic activities both in Brazil and the US.
