about

Zona Sul:
1. Southern part of Rio de Janeiro, including Ipanema and Copacabana; birthplace of the Bossa Nova.
2. A band dedicated to playing Bossa Nova, the music "invented" in the late 1950s by Brazilians João Gilberto and Antonio Carlos Jobim. It has its roots in Brazilian Samba and Jazz, the lyrics and melodies are often quite melancholy while the rhythms can be joyful and make you feel like dancing.

Zona Sul have been playing together for years. Inspired by the legendary Zimbo Trio and singer Elis Regina, the band remains authentic and true to the Brazilian tradition, while having developed an original style.

Like the music its band members have been influenced by jazz and Brazilian music:

On piano: Tizian Jost. An acclaimed jazz-pianist, he has spent a lot of time in Brazil, where he acquired in depth knowledge of Brazilian music. Listen to his lyrical solos on Falando de Amor, Chovendo na Roseira and Bonita.

Pedro Tagliani, on guitar, is from Brazil and decided to stay in Europe after a tour with his band "Raiz de Pedra". He is committed to the groove while being very melodic. He solos on Estate and Estrada do Sol.

On bass: Sava Medan was born in Belgrad. His early musical education was in the folk music of his native Yugoslavia. Later he moved on to jazz. His inventive, colorful bass playing is just great.

Hajo v. Hadeln started playing drums when he was 13, listening to jazz while his classmates were still into Abba. When joining Zona Sul, he sought out the intricacies of Brazilian rhythms. His sensitive accompaniment is perfect for Sophie’s singing.

On this recording you can hear it all coming together the love of music and singing and the love of languages and foreign cultures. Sophie sings in four different languages English, Portuguese, French and Italian, but most of the songs are in Portuguese. However, to make the recording more accessible for non-portuguese speakers, she decided to sing several songs in English and to add the original versions as bonus tracks.

Sophie Wegener Munich, Germany

Sophie, she told me she loved two things: music and languages.
Born to a French mother and a German father, she grew up in a bilingual household.
After having lived in Paris, London and New York she settled down in Munich and started singing professionally. At first she concentrated on jazz, but a trip to Brazil turned out to be so inspiring that she decided to work on a bossa nova repertoire. ... more
