Info zu Delia Fischer: Beyond Bossa

Over the dozen albums from her 4-decade career, “Delia Fischer: Beyond Bossa” represents the first English language recording from the Brazilian pianist, singer, and songwriter. It was through an effusive 2019 5-star DownBeat review from journalist, musician & songwriter Allen Morrison that the collaboration making this album possible began. Captivated with her poetic, profound and sophisticated songwriting, Morrison & Delia worked together to create English versions that honored the spirit of the original lyrics while telling engaging stories in a more American vernacular. With inspired guest artists to help interpret them – including Gretchen Parlato, Luciana Souza, Marcos Valle, Chico Pinheiro, cellist Eugene Friesen, New York Voices, and Italian soul singer Mario Biondi – “Beyond Bossa” is full of joy, pathos, and the restless rhythms of Brazil in 2024. Though it features an utterly charming Bossa Nova duet, “What Good is Summer?” with it’s composer, Marcio Nucci, the album is a moving and luminescent adventure pushing beyond Bossa.

“… a Brazilian artist of the highest quality. This is a great, new, beautiful project.” – Ivan Lins

”In the constant search for new forms of Brazilian music… I have in Delia an important ally. Her concept of mixing and filtering Brazilian influences through her unique musicality and personal joy stimulates my own creative work.” – Egberto Gismonti

Delia Fischer
Born in Rio de Janeiro, Delia Fischer, singer, songwriter, pianist, and arranger, has earned two Latin Grammy nominations for Best Brazilian (MPB) Album of the Year, one in 2019 for Tempo Mínimo (Labidad) and another in 2021 for H.O.J.E. (Labidad). Tempo Mínimo earned five stars from Downbeat Magazine in 2019, which named itone of the Best Albums of the Year; it was also named “Best Latin Album” by Latina Magazine in Japan in 2019. Her music ranges from MPB to post-Bossa Nova, samba, and electronic pop.

Delia Fischer: Beyond Bossa, her ninth solo album, is her first sung mostly in English. Delia has performed and recorded with Brazilian and international greats including Milton Nascimento (whose recording of one of her songs became the theme for a popular Brazilian soap opera), Egberto Gismonti, Gilberto Gil, Marcos Valle, guitarist Toninho Horta, Hermeto Pascoal, Romero Lubambo, Ney Matogrosso, Swedish singer Lisa Nilsson, Italian R&B star Mario Biondi, French-Camaroonian singer Valérie Ékoumè, and Italian pop singer-songwriter Tony Canto.

Her eight previous albums as a solo artist are available on all platforms. Her solo discography includes: Andar Com Gil (2023, Jasmin Music); H.O.J.E. (2021, Labidad); Rainhas (2021, Labidad); Entre Amigos (2020, Labidad); Tempo Mínimo (2019, Labidad); Saudações Egberto (2011, Rob Digital + 2016, Tuff Beats Japan); Presente (2010, Dubas); and Antonio (1999, ECM). Her recording career started with Duo Fênix, a partnership with Claudio Dauelsberg, with the albums Duo Fênix (1988 - BMG Ariola, LP) and Karai-Eté (1990 - BMG Ariola, Brazil / In & Out Records, Europe and USA, LP).

Delia’s piano and voice studies started early. She studied piano with prominent Brazilian masters including classical and film composer Cesar Guerra-Peixe and famed Bossa-Nova/jazz pianist Luiz Eça (Tamba Trio), becoming a professional musician while still in her teens. She developed her singing abilities first in a choir at ProArte Music School in Rio and later worked with vocal coach Felipe Abreu. She soon built a reputation as a talented pianist and prolific composer in Brazil and Europe, including appearances at the Club New Morning in Paris, Sofia Jazz Festival, and the Montreux Jazz Festival. Her prestige as a musician led to her engagements as music director and arranger in a number of musicals in Rio and Sao Paulo, spanning more than a decade from 2007 through 2019 and earning her many theatre awards in Brazil.

Her stage performances are marked by superb musicianship, charming singing, Brazilian charisma, and, always, great songs. 2019 saw her complete her first solo European tour, with dates in Germany, Italy and Portugal. After the lockdowns ended, she resumed live shows and played sold-out nights at Rio venues, at the Blue Note clubs in São Paulo and Rio, and at Rio’s prestigious Sala Cecilia Meireles in a concert dedicated to her renditions of songs by Gil and Milton Nascimento. She also appeared in an evening with renowned composer and pianist Antonio Adolfo and Atlântica Big Band.

"Delia Fischer is a Brazilian artist of the highest quality. She sings and plays my song beautifully. She gave it a new meaning. I feel very grateful!” - Ivan Lins, singer-songwriter

“In the constant search for new forms of Brazilian music, with all its variations and roots, I have an important ally in Delia. Her concept of mixing and filtering Brazilian influences through her unique musicality and personal joy stimulates my own creative work.” - Egberto Gismonti, composer and multi-instrumentalist
