About this event

Luciana Diliz will lead (with Tim Connell and Alexandra Santos) our second "The Sounds of Bossa Nova" workshop at Tabor Space in SE Portland - Tickets $15 plus $2.39 service fee.

Learn how to pronounce the lyrics in Portuguese while singing songs by Antônio Carlos Jobim. No need to speak Portuguese or be a singer. Just bring your curiosity and love for music! Led by Brazilian Portuguese teacher and Bossa Nova enthusiast Luciana Diniz, with beautiful piano accompaniment by Tim Connell and inspiring singing by Alexandra Santos.

NOTE: The songs will be different from the ones from the first workshop we did in September.

This workshop is the perfect blend of language and melody. Come experience the beauty of Brazilian Portuguese and the smooth sounds of bossa nova in a relaxed, welcoming setting.

This workshop will be led by Brazilian Portuguese teacher and bossa nova enthusiast, Luciana Diniz, with live instrumental accompaniment by Tim Connell. Luciana has an MA and PhD in Applied Linguistics from Georgia State University, and she has been teaching Portuguese as a second language for more than 15 years. She often uses music to teach her native language.
