In 2004, three young people brought together their love of Northeastern culture and music and founded Trio Alvorada. With the traditional structure of instruments, their aim was to revive and pay homage to the great names of Forró, such as Luiz Gonzaga, Trio Nordestino, Marinês, among others. As well as glorifying the classics, they began to create a vast repertoire that is now known by all forró communities and which has resulted in the recording of five albums so far.
Alvorada have been touring Europe since 2015, when they began their first world tour. Their success was such that they have returned to Europe several times and have also made their debut in Japan!
We already know that their performances will certainly be unforgettable!
