Fabiano do Nascimento - Cavejaz (2025)

"Cavejaz" is an album by Brazilian guitar virtuoso Fabiano do Nascimento, released by Leaving Records. The release demonstrates the artist's deep connection to traditional Brazilian genres such as choro and samba, but presents them through the lens of complex jazz improvisation and folk introspection. The album is characterized by a minimalist, almost chamber recording style, focusing on the pure acoustic sound of the guitar. The title "Cavejaz" (from "Cave") symbolizes the intimate, secluded space in which the music was created. The result is a meditative yet virtuous journey where traditional melodic structures undergo an experimental, contemporary reinterpretation.
