Eddie Marquis performs the great jazz and bossa nova standards - the most beautiful music in the world. He sings in English and Brazilain Portuguese - and rarely in Italian or French, scats, and sometimes also plays guitar - a classical guitar that is miked.
Eddie can play the music he chooses from his playlist, or he can tailor the evening to your desired mood and perform, for example, hot jazz with a lot of scatting, or on the other hand - a very soft romantic set of beautiful songs and ballads. Eddie sings, among other jazz and bossa classics:
Misty, The Shadow of Your Smile, When Sunny Gets Blue, Moonlight in Vermont, When You Wish Upon a Star, I Remember You, Tangerine, My Funny Valentine, Someday My Prince Will Come, My Favorite Things ...
as well as:
Summer Samba, The Girl From Ipanema, Corcovado, Triste, Dreamer (Vivo Sonhando), Desafinado, Wave, My Little Boat (O Barquinho), Useless Landscape, Dindi, Para Machucar Meu Coracao, If You Went Away, One Note Samba, and more classics by Antonio Carlos Jobim, Marcos Valle, Roberto Menescal and a few other great Brazilian bossa nova composers.
