Description
This album is a triumphant celebration, exploring new compositions alongside fresh versions of some of Floras favourite songs. Title track If You Will revives her past collaborations with producer and long-time friend, the legendary George Duke:
You will find good love, real joy, so much peace of mind, if you will_
The tune sets a positive and inspiring tone that echoes throughout the project and features vocals from Floras daughter, Diana Purim, who guests on four of the nine tracks. This Is Me is a tune rewritten in Portuguese and originally penned in English in 2005 by Diana and her production partner, husband Krishna Booker; 500 Miles High marks the heyday of the late Chick Coreas Return To Forever band and ‘Zahuroo’ by Brazilian singer/pianist Cludia Villela features Cludia on an exciting and dynamic group vocal with Flora and husband, renowned percussionist Airto Moreira.
A true family affair, If You Will is one of many albums recorded over the years by the team of Flora, Airto, Diana and Krishna. The project reunites some of Floras closest circle of musical peers, including guitarist/composer Jos Neto and drummer/engineerCelso Alberti who, together with Diana and Krishna helped Flora produce this album.
