Starting tomorrow, Wednesday, until Friday, 26th, Loronix will be dedicated to the memory of Antonio Carlos Jobim, we will have 48 hours of music and information to celebrate his 80th anniversary on Thursday, 25th.

Several events will take place in Rio de Janeiro and Loronix is supporting the one who has the "Loronix spirit", Kiko Continentino, top-notch pianist, composer and arranger will perform with his trio and the special guests Os Cariocas, Pery Ribeiro, Nelson Angelo, Pachoal Meirelles, SambaJazz Trio, Chico Batera, an others, 80 - I said 80 - Antonio Carlos Jobim compositions on a single night at Lagoa Rodrigo de Freitas in Rio.

Kiko and guests, I hope that you sleep early to accomplish this challenge, a great Tour de Force, 80 Jobim songs on a single night.

I will be there and it will be a nice chance to meet Loronixers from Rio de Janeiro and other Brazilian states or even countries. So, if you live outside Rio and Brazil get the chance and come to see this great event.

That's it, tomorrow starts 48 hours of Tom Jobim at Loronix, I'm posting complimentary info on Kiko Continentino Trio and guest concert just bellow.

PS.: Caetano has just sent some Jobim pearls to our tribute that will make us very pleeeased :-)
