Maria João (born Maria João Monteiro Grancha June 27, 1956, Lisbon, Portugal) is a Portuguese jazz singer. She is known for her vocal flexibility and improvisational skills. While normally considered a jazz artist, her music incorporates a mix of folk/ethnic music, modern jazz, avant-garde, electronica, symphonic and other genres. Although her main musical partner is Portuguese pianist Mário Laginha, she has worked with many musicians throughout her career, including Aki Takase, Manu Katche, Trilok Gurtu, Bobby McFerrin, Wolfgang Muthspiel, Joe Zawinul, Ralph Towner, Dino Saluzzi, Kai Eckhardt, Gilberto Gil and Lenine. Currently, she maintains her long-time collaboration with Mário Laginha, as well as working with Belgian singer David Linx and OGRE, a Portuguese jazz and electronica project. == Discography == *''Quinteto Maria João'' (1983) *''Cem Caminhos'' (1985) *''Conversa'' (1986) *''Looking for Love'' (1988) *''Alice'' (1990) - live album with Aki Takase *''Sol'' (1992) *''Danças'' (1994) *''Fábula'' (1996) *''Cor'' (1998) *''Lobos, Raposas e Coiotes'' (1999) *''Chorinho Feliz'' (2000) *''Mumadji'' (2001) *''Undercovers'' (2002) *''Tralha'' (2004) *''Cinco; Saxofour & Maria Joao'' (2005) *''João'' (2007) - solo album *''Chocolate'' (2008) *''Follow The Songlines (2010)'' - Maria João & David Linx with Mário Laginha & Diederik Wissels *''Amoras e Framboesas'' (2011) - with Matosinhos Jazz Orchestra *''A Different Porgy & Another Bess'' (2012) - with David Linx & Brussels Jazz Orchestra *''Electrodoméstico'' (2012) - with OGRE *''Iridescente'' (2012) - Maria João e Mário Laginha *''Plástico'' (2015) - with OGRE 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Maria João」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
