Felipe Galganni: "FELIPE 101"
This show is part of the Pangea Jazz Festival which runs from August 23 through August 31, 2019.
Felipe Galganni is thrilled to have the opportunity to be exploring his favorite tunes from bossa nova to jazz in an intimate evening as he shares a new side of himself that of a solo artist. He will be accompanied by Brazilian musicians Felipe Viegas on piano, Samuel Martinelle on drums and Wesley Amorim on guitar. Guest artists include Jackie Ribas and Leo Abel.
As Felipe Galganni says it best, Não há maior alegria do que dançar e cantar com grandes músicos! (There is no greater joy than dancing and singing with great musicians!)
Felipe Galganni is a tap dancer, teacher, and choreographer known for his unique ability to blend tap dance as an American art form with his Brazilian roots.

"In Fuga, Felipe Galganni juxtaposed the precision of tap with the curvaceousness of capoeira, the Brazilian martial art. Their musicality was contagious."
New York Times By Siobhan Burke
"(...) One of Jobim's more curious songs is Waters of March", the tall, long-legged Galganni had a photo of Jobim on a table and put on a hat similar to what Jobim wore and masterfully sang and danced to the song."

"() Brazilian tap dance virtuoso Felipe Galganni choreographed and created TAP & TOM, an hour-long show that merged two distinct cultures that have common roots for a perfect marriage of rhythm."
