Drawing inspiration from the great composers of contemporary Brazilian music, David Chong and Nathan Slater have together created compositions that are not only vibrant and energetic, but delicate and sublime. Tatu Rei delivers an original blend of Jazz, Samba and Bossa. If you aren't touched by the subtle portuguese lyrics then you will be spellbound by the infectious rhythms
Formed in 2005, the ensemble is comprised of some of Australia's most reputable musicians. The melodic fervour that is the latin guitar along with the profound undertones of the gorgeous 6 string base should be enough to awaken your senses, however this is only the beginning. Bring in the sophisticated elegance of the unassuming pianist, add considered percussive innuendo, and we now have the formation of the Tatu Rei sound.
Moving beyond the divine, David Chong's delightfully poetic lyric touches the soul in one moment and moves you to dance the next.
