“A Flor do Recomeço” Tour

The Lithuanian audience will be among the first to be presented not only with the most prominent works of the artist's career but also with the music from his new album, “A Flor do Recomeço”. This is a special project, recorded in São Paulo together with famous Brazilian composers and musicians, revealing an even deeper and more mature side of Salvador Sobral's work. On stage, the artist will be accompanied by an international group of top-tier musicians, together creating an intimate, aesthetic, and exceptionally emotional concert atmosphere. Salvador Sobral's concerts in Lithuania will undoubtedly become one of the most subtle and musical concert events of this season.

Portuguese singer Salvador Sobral presents his first album consisting entirely of works by Brazilian composers. The album “A Flor do Recomeço” (“The Flower of Rebirth”) was recorded in São Paulo and produced by Brazilians Marcus Preto and Tó Brandileone.

The album features an exclusive collection of previously unheard works, created specifically for Sobral by such renowned artists as Adriana Calcanhotto, Arnaldo Antunes, Chico César, Céu, Marcelo Camelo, Mallu Magalhães, Marcos Valle, and Tim Bernardes. The album title comes from a poem by writer Eveline Sin, for which Chico César composed the music.

According to Sobral, this project became an extremely personal journey back to his musical roots: “I am convinced that music was born in Brazil. I grew up listening to Maria Bethânia in my mother's car, and Chico César's music played at my father's. This album was born from the need to return to the very essence, to get to know and discover the timeless sounds of this side of the Atlantic even more deeply,” says the singer.

Together with top-tier Brazilian musicians – Tiago Costa (piano), Fábio Sá (double bass), Conrado Goys (guitar), Sergio Machado (drums), and Felipe Roseno (percussion) – Sobral emphasizes that the most important goal was authenticity, not imitation: “Our goal was not to create a ‘Brazilian album’, but an album of works by Brazilian composers, performed by Brazilian musicians and sung by a Portuguese person. Otherwise, we would risk becoming a caricature of Brazilian music with a strange accent,” shares the star.
