Nôa Nôa
Izio Gross

NOA NOA was born out of the gathering of the pianist, composer and arranger Izio Gross with Airto Moreira’s group, 4th World, during their tour around South Africa with singer Flora Purim.


With the participation of 4th World’s musicians, bass player Denis Lalouette and south-African drummer Vusi Khumalo, Izio recorded his own works and other important Brazilian and international composers ‘ works.
The highlights are “Pastoriana”, a tribute to Jaco Pastorius; “Leblon”, celebrating the famous Rio de Janeiro’s beach and “Muito Obrigado Flô” (Thank you very much Flo) a tribute to the singer Flora Purim.
