Review by Jake W.

Mário Laginha's album Hoje is a mesmerizing and enchanting musical journey that showcases the pianist's exceptional talent and creativity. The album features a mix of original compositions and covers, with Laginha's unique touch infusing each track with a sense of intimacy and emotion.

From the opening track "Horizonte" to the hauntingly beautiful "Gente," Laginha's piano playing is both technically impressive and emotionally resonant. He seamlessly blends elements of jazz, classical, and Brazilian music, creating a sound that is both familiar and fresh.

One of the standout tracks on the album is "Dança Dos Pássaros," a lively and upbeat tune that showcases Laginha's ability to create infectious melodies. Another highlight is "Aria," a delicate and introspective piece that showcases Laginha's more contemplative side.
