Listen to Brazilian singer Dom La Nena - Soyo ( Six Degrees) on WNJR
Dominique Pinto (Dom La Nena)has learned to live in motion. Born in the coastal city of Porto Alegre, she spent her childhood split between her hometown and Paris, studying cello and piano. Her songs are very diverse; she sings only three of the 11 songs on her new album in Portuguese. There are five in Spanish and one each in French and English. Pinto's debut was in 2013, when she pieced together cello-centric approach and various melodic and rhythmic elements into songs of both beauty and depth. If you don’t understand Portuguese, the joy may seem more prominent. With a translation it skews the other way: “I have no home,” she sings. “I live in the tide.”
You can listen to “Llegaré” by Dom La Nena on high Rotation coming up next week,
