Belton Mouras, Jr.
Jazzy Bossa
Just as he did as writer/producer of the celebrated short film Mickey’s Tree, the multi-talented Belton Mouras, Jr. continues to inspire and transport our hearts and souls into fresh, dynamic and eclectic realms as a smooth jazz pianist/composer. Following up his deeply spiritual and heartfelt “Gentle Angel,” his compelling and whimsical latest single “Jazzy Bossa” returns to the Latin/Bossa flavored vibe of his song “Magic All Around Us” which was released earlier this year to great fanfare! The song struts with a charming coolness from start to finish, with Belton’s bright, lighthearted piano trading sweetly melodic and soulful harmony lines with the sensual clarinet energy of Otis Mourning and creating fascinating intertwining musical conversations with Arlyn Anderson’s snappy acoustic guitar before Anderson takes a hypnotic, deeply rhythmic solo. “Jazzy Bossa” is a spirited, balmy delight that artfully fuses smooth jazz with traditional jazz elements and intoxicating Brazilian style grooves.
