Trupe Vocal is the only group of its
kind in Portugal and with almost 10 years of professional career the
Trupe is now one of the longest standing jazz groups in existence.
The voices which make up the group (Fátima Serro/ Kiko/ Maria
João) have been building their own statute, their work being
recognised not only in this project, but also in their own solo work,
in the areas of jazz, blues and soul.
The selection of the repertory has, until now, fallen principally
upon the great American Jazz composers passing through various styles,
from swing and blues to bossa and latin, with arrangements by Fátima
Serro and the colaboration of Kiko in the creation of lyrics.
After several years of activity having performed on stages all over
the country and participated in a huge variety of jazz/music festivals,
the Trupe released their first record, “We’ll remember
you” (Ed. Açor-Jazz), with the participation of several
guest musicians.
This album was considered by the website “jazz Portugal”
as “one of the best jazz records published in 2001”.
