Jazz vocalist and composer Sara Serpa sings a distinctive combination of traditional and contemporary jazz, performing mostly her wordless originals where she uses her voice as an instrument. "She possesses a vocal flexibility and dexterity unlike any that I've witnessed in an alarmingly long time" says famous jazz musician Greg Osby. Sara's performances include famous venues like Hot Clube de Portugal, (Lisboa) Regatta Bar (Boston), Berklee Performance Center (Boston), Casa de la Musica (Quito). For the past two years, Sara Serpa has shared the stage with different musicans like Andre Matos, Nelson Cascais, Jorge Reis, Bruno Pedroso, Andre Sousa Machado, Demian Cabaud, Jesse Chandler, Ferenc Nemeth, Nick Falk, Esperanza Spalding, Peter Slavov, Eric McPherson, Aruan Ortiz, Leo Genovese, Vardan Ovsepian, Eli Degibri and Greg Hopkins Jazz Orchestra.
