The 2018 season of Performances in Public Spaces presents the Minas Sextet.

Based in Philadelphia since 1984, Minas presents high-quality and authentic Brazilian Bossa Nova and Jazz, under the direction of native Brazilian Orlando Haddad and Patricia King Haddad, and featuring great Philly-based jazz musicians, John Swana, Andrew Neu, Tom Cohen and Jim Stager. Minas has produced 6 CDs of original music in our city, taking Brazilian and American roots creating a sound that is fresh and innovative. Orlando and Patricia’s compositions have been compared to classics by Cole Porter and Antonio Carlos Jobim. Capturing the essence of great songwriting with memorable melodies, inventive harmonies, and poetic lyrics, the music of Minas is engaging and timeless.
