Bio:
Nilze Carvalho first picked up the cavaquinho at 5 years of age, and at 6 played on television (twice). She recorded her first record, Choro de Menina, at 12 (the title is literally "Girl's Cry", but the Portuguese word for "cry", "choro", also refers to a beautiful and difficult style of music, something akin to Brazilian jazz). Nilze turned to mandolin and by 14 years of age had recorded a series of four more records, in two of them accompanied by the most famous choro group in Brazil (Época de Ouro).
She has since recorded and toured widely, and has appeared alongside Brazil's most highly respected sambistas and chorões (choro players).

▶ Brazil has something called "jeitinho" (zhay-TEEN-you), the "little way". In a land where the official way is often impossible, people get things done by other means.
▶ The matrix is jeitinho. It allows splendid Brazilian musicians to be discovered and accessed from everywhere. But to work for the Brazilians, it has to work for everyone.
▶ All explained inside the dot-defined window immediately below (curated artists below this window)... from Brazil, with love!
This matrix is predicated on the fact that fame & fortune are not inextricably linked to talent, dedication, and even genius.
Brazil has something called "jeitinho", the "little way". In a country where the official way is so often impossible, people have to be creative. Do end runs around problems and powers-that-be.
