Aquarela do Brasil by Ari Barroso

Greetings everyone!

We hope you are having a wonderful Summer filled with beautiful music!

This has been a busy year and we have been working towards many recitals and projects for the Summer and the Fall Semesters. One of our current projects is called From the Bench Concert Series and its mission is to educate the community about music!

We believe music can serve as a catalyst for social connection. Emerging evidence indicates that music has the potential to promote social connectedness, and develop emotional competence.

For this week's blog, I'm performing my arrangement of Aquarela do Brasil by Ari Barroso. This song only became famous after it was included in Walt Disney's 1942 animated film Saludos Amigos, sung by Aloísio de Oliveira. After that, the song became known not only in Brazil, but worldwide, becoming the first Brazilian song to be played over a million times on American radio.

Best of the Best Youth Education/Recreation in the Tampa Bay Area!!!! 🎹

Dear readers,

Happy Friday! I hope you are all having a fantastic Summer break! Last week, I had the opportunity to compete internationally at the Universal Petite Pageant representing my home country, Brazil. I also had the opportunity to talk about the From the Piano Bench, my concert series designed to make classical music accessible to everyone and bring awareness to the benefits of music in our mental health.

I was able to take home the Volunteer Excellence Award with 154 hours of volunteer service in the community, I won the best costume in my category, and I took third runner-up in my category! During the Universal Petite Competition, I was also competing into other two unrelated competitions, which I came in 9th place with the 2024 Ms. Health & Fitness and I was a finalist for the Let Music Fill My World.

Now, drum rolls please!!! If that wasn't enough, our Piano Academy has been nominated as one of the Best of the Best Youth Education/Recreation in the Tampa Bay Area!!!!
