Trio Esperança offers a sound that is fundamentally rooted in the warmth of family. Their music is a masterclass in vocal blending, where three voices move as a single, shimmering entity. It feels like a vintage postcard from Rio de Janeiro, capturing a sense of optimism and sophisticated simplicity that is rare in modern pop. The texture is soft and organic, often eschewing heavy instrumentation in favor of the natural resonance of the human voice.
What truly distinguishes them is their ability to translate complex Brazilian rhythms into accessible, melodic vocal pop. Whether they are covering international hits or interpreting the works of Jobim, there is a specific 'lightness' to their delivery. It is music that breathes, leaving space for the listener to relax into the rhythm. Their later a cappella work highlights a technical precision that never feels clinical, only intimate.
Start with 'A capela do Brasil' to hear their voices in their purest, most breathtaking form. If you prefer a more classic 60s pop feel, 'A Festa Do Bolinha' captures their early charm and the infectious energy of the Jovem Guarda era. It is the perfect soundtrack for anyone who finds beauty in the quiet, harmonious moments of life.
Trio Esperança is a Brazilian vocal trio, formed in the city of Rio de Janeiro in 1958, by the siblings Mário, Regina and Evinha Correia José Maria. They had several hits in Brazil, such as "Festa do Bolinha" and "Filme Triste" - a version of the pop song "Sad Movies (Make Me Cry)", released as a single in 1962, and released albums through Polygram Records, EMI, Universal Music and Philips Records. After releasing four albums in France, the Trio Esperança took a break from the music business in 2002. The band returned on stage in 2008. In 2010, the Trio Esperança, composed of Evinha, Regina and Mariza, released a new album De Bach a Jobim on French label Dreyfus Jazz. The disc featured covers of music by The Beatles, Bach, and Antonio Carlos Jobim, in addition to original material. In 2013, almost 20 years after the release of "A Capela do Brasil", the first album they released in France, the Trio Esperança decided to pay tribute to French music, with their personal take on 14 songs by emblematic French artists, releasing a new album "Doce França"
