Amorado (Choro), Valdir Azevedo

Ira Erokhina (domra) and John Lettieri (accordion) perform an influential choro. The choro originated in Brazil and blends classical European styles with Afro-Brazilian influences. Ira is the concertmaster of the Toronto Mandolin Orchestra who you see in behind. I recorded their very lively mostly Latin concert on Dec. 2, 2018. Both artists are brilliant and are also fun to watch since they enjoy performing. Notice how Ira gives John a good workout.
