O’s Notes: Sara Serpa has a beautiful voice and deploys it as an instrument on Primavera. She also plays keyboards on six selections. André Matos is the co-leader playing mostly guitar and bass on three selections. It is mostly a set of duets except on five tracks where guest artists Greg Osby (sax), Pete Rende (prophet keyboard) and Leo Genovese (melodically, p, g) each expanding the band to a trio and adding a different take. “Kubana” and “Nuvem” are standouts.
