Descriptions, Reviews, &c.
"O Carro De Fogo De Sei Miguel, a small orchestra of all fusions, which nevertheless must be bluish, haunts, since 2011, a non-circuit of disparate sites, with its calm and vibrant celebrations. This for a growing yet unclassifiable audience. In 2019 a namesake LP, by Clean Feed, was the single_almost the recording of a rehearsal_first time on record. Now, by Shhpuma, we acced to three apparitions of the Thing, live, 2017-19-22, with excellent sound. Based in Lisbon, his more than likely tomb, but rich in a planetary consciousness of music, here is O Carro De Fogo De Sei Miguel, "Um - Um - Um, E Nao Ha Forma De Morrer."-Shhpuma

Artist Biographies

"Plays his trumpet with complete awareness of the whole Jazz history while dealing, as a music director, with the full spectrum of sound sources in a broad range of innovative (and often strange) solutions, including frequent use of electronics. He has created his own music system, allowing him to take his open pieces to a high degree of perfection.

Director, arranger and trumpeter, Sei Miguel considers himself a simple jazzman, which, he says, isn't always easy. Born in 1961, Paris, lived in Brazil and France until settling down in Portugal during the 80's. Since 1986 he has been directing formations of variable geometry. Having performed in Portugal, Germany, Italy and Brazil, among his many regular collaborators are not only guitarists Rafael Toral and Manuel Mota, but also extraordinaire trombone player and painter Fala Mariam and virtuoso percussionist César Burago. Miguel has also written music for theater and ballet."

"Born in Lisbon. Some academic training did not foster in her an interest for musical creation. In 1980, during a trip to the north of India, she intuited the sacred fire of true music, that she will find again in the more initiatic jazz and the gratifying discovery of several trombonists. Sei Miguel´s "sideman" since 1983, she partakes in all his works."
