Press

  • “Her impassioned vocal work and her descent from one of Brazil’s leading musical families have combined to enable her to offer an inimitable style—already matured—that’s unlike anyone else’s. In contrast to the expectation of Brazilian singers remaining within a narrow range of coolness expressing romantic ambivalence, Assad rejoices through singing, her multi-faceted talent uncontainable as she energetically bends music to her will and reshapes it with fascinating results.” — Jazz Improv
  • “She has that trademark Assad style of flying-fingered aplomb. At times it sounded like she had eight hands on the keys while her scat style floated effortlessly above it.” — Classical Guitar Magazine
  • “ siren’s voice croons elegantly and seductively from the speakers on the very first note.” — Indie-Music.com
  • “As Brazilian dynasties go, few can rival the breadth or depth of the tri-generational Assad clan.” — JazzTimes
  • "...serious triple threat..." - San Francisco Chronicle
  • "An arranger and orchestrator of great imagination." - SF Classical Voice
  • "A charismatic singer." - The New York Times

Famous quotes containing the word press:

    No government ought to be without censors; and where the press is free no one ever will.
    Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)

    In those rare days, the press was seldom known to snarl or bark,
    But sweetly sang of men in pow’r, like any tuneful lark;
    Grave judges, too, to all their evil deeds were in the dark;
    And not a man in twenty score knew how to make his mark.
    Oh the fine old English Tory times;
    Charles Dickens (1812–1890)

    The Dada object reflected an ironic posture before the consecrated forms of art. The surrealist object differs significantly in this respect. It stands for a mysterious relationship with the outer world established by man’s sensibility in a way that involves concrete forms in projecting the artist’s inner model.
