American mezzo-soprano Melanie Ohm and Brazilian pianist Rúbia Santos met during their graduate studies at Arizona State University in 1999. Since then, both artists have passionately shared their great interest for Brazilian culture, in particular its wealth of music and literature. In 2002, Ohm and Santos began a collaborative work dedicated to researching, lecturing, and performing the “canção brasileira,” or Brazilian song. They have traveled many times to Brazil and performed and lectured in various venues in the US.” The duo gave their international debut during the 2006 Mediterranean Studies Association Congress in Genoa, Italy. |
