The show features António Saiote, one of the greatest Portuguese clarinetists and an international reference as a conductor and pedagogue. A graduate with distinction from the National Conservatory and the Hochschule in Munich, he is an honorary member of the International Clarinet Association and a professor at ESMAE in Porto, and a Bakun artist. The vocals will be provided by Ana Rita Inácio, one of the most versatile voices of our time, who collaborated on OJA's album Sophia in 2019.

This concert celebrates the elegance and energy of the Swing Era — the golden age of large-format jazz, where contagious energy reigned, along with dance and the most eccentric lifestyles. Featuring songs by Benny Goodman, Artie Shaw, Glenn Miller and other icons of the vibrant 1920s, this will be a unique show.
