Musa Nova & Angela Hagenbach - Musa Nova (1995)

Angela Hagenbach & Musa Nova is a six-piece jazz ensemble that evolved from a shared love and passion for Latin music. From Brazilian to Afro-Cuban influences, they present an eclectic mix of Latin jazz with passion and intensity. Covers of compositons by composers such as Jobim, Dori Caymmi, and Ivan Lins are included in the bands' repertoire, as well as original compositons by band members and jazz standards that have been adapted to the Latin idiom. Representative concert and clinic venues include Jazz in Marciac France, U. of OK, U. of NE, U. of MO, and Hot Springs Jazz Festival.
