The Adrienne Arsht Center for the Performing Arts of Miami- Dade County (@ArshtCenter) is proud to present OFERTÓRIO starring one of Brazil’s most iconic musicians, CAETANO VELOSO, on April 20, 2019 as part of its 2018-2019 Live at Knight series. The two-time Grammy® Award winner returns to the Arsht Center with his three sons for a concert in celebration of their new album, Ofertório. With their sublimely blended vocals and charming instrumental talent, Veloso and his sons’ warm, collective spirit bridges traditional Brazilian music with pop, psychedelic rock, and folk influences.

Tickets to OFERTÓRIO are $39, $59, $79 & $89* and will be available to Arsht Center Culturist members beginning December 18 at noon EST and to the general public beginning December 21 at noon EST. Tickets may be purchased through the Adrienne Arsht Center Box Office by calling (305) 949-6722, or online at arshtcenter.org.

For over 35 years, Caetano Veloso has been a major musical, social and cultural force in Brazil, and an influential figure to musicians all over the world. Described as “one of the greatest songwriters of the century” (The New York Times) and “a master in a league of his own” (The Times – UK), Caetano’s collaboration with his three sons – Moreno, Zeca, and Tom – reveals and celebrates the innate and very intimate musical relationship around their extraordinary lineage of songwriting.

The concert will feature many of the family’s favorite songs, such as “Um Canto de Afoxé Para o Bloco do Ilê” and “O Leãozinho” as well as music that is new to them. Caetano plays guitar while Moreno, Zeca, and Tom take turns on various instruments including cello, bass, and keyboard — all singing together in ethereal harmony.
