Ná Ozzetti gives voice to four songs by her brother, Marco Ozzetti, in an EP aimed at those who believe in the 'salvation' of poetry
Ná Ozzetti is set to release an EP featuring songs written by her brother Marco Ozzetti, alongside verses from poet Simone Bacelar, on February 25.
Ná Ozzetti's upcoming EP, titled "Música na poesia – Canções de Marco Ozzetti e Simone Bacelar," will be released on February 25th. The EP is notable for showcasing four songs, all crafted by her brother Marco Ozzetti, and includes themes drawn from the work of prominent Brazilian poet Simone Bacelar. This collaboration reflects Ná's deep-rooted appreciation for the intertwining of music and poetry, a hallmark of her artistic identity.
The opening track of the EP, "As bençãos de Oxalá," embodies a rhythmic pulse strongly influenced by percussionist Thata Ozzetti, emphasizing themes of hope and resilience through its lyrics. Ná Ozzetti, a recognized figure in Brazil's music scene since her emergence as a member of the influential group Rumo in the 1980s, aims to reintroduce the significance of poetry in contemporary music through this project. Her voice continues to resonate, bridging past and present musical narratives.
With visually striking album art by André Salerno, the EP not only marks a significant musical venture for Ná Ozzetti but also aims to reconnect listeners with the essence of Brazilian poetry set to melody. This initiative may hold broader implications for the indie music movement in São Paulo, as artists like Ná Ozzetti strive to innovate while honoring the traditional roots of their craft, thereby enriching Brazil's cultural landscape.
