Lôro (Egberto Gismonti) by yuko yokoi music published on 2017-11-16T19:47:23Z Written by Egberto Gismonti. Yuko, the jazz singer shares her absolute love of both Brazilian and contemporary jazz music. Full of improvisation, light and colour, her delightful interpretations are exquisitely individual . Tracks include compositions by many of her favourite stellar artists such as Hermeto Pascoal, Egberto Gismonti, Ivan Lins, Kenny Wheeler and Norma Winston alongside her own co-written originals. Perhaps due to her Japanese background, there is an essence of the Japanese philosophy, "wabi sabi" - a pursuit of embracing both the imperfection and transience of life, flowing effortlessly through her music. Certainly being resident in the UK for nineteen years and completing a Masters in Jazz at Trinity Laban Conservatoire of Music and Dance, has enabled Yuko to develop a Japanese minimalistic approach to her music that is entirely unique.
