The Brazilian Music Festival in Zurich - With its dialog between popular trends and new local experimental music, the Solar Festival paints a contemporary picture of Brazil's cultural pluralism. It aims to combine folk traditions, myths, colors, rhythms and forms of expression in order to showcase the country's cultural richness with a fresh, committed and conscious approach.

 

The artists invited for the third edition are Luiz Gabriel Lopes (solo), Lia de Itamaracá & Band, Yabás- Solar artistic Residence (Anna Tréa, Dandara Modesto e Jabu Morales), Joanina & Batucada and Dj Sampa, who together represent the richness and diversity of Brazilian culture.
