Azymuth live in Lisbon

Experience Azymuth live on September 26th

Azymuth, a highly influential Brazilian instrumental group, will perform at Casa do Capitão in Lisbon, Portugal on September 26, 2026. The band is renowned for its pioneering role in developing *samba-jazz*, blending elements of samba, jazz fusion, funk, and soul music. Formed in Rio de Janeiro in 1973, Azymuth gained international recognition for its complex arrangements, sophisticated harmonies, and distinctive use of synthesizers and percussion. Throughout their career they have released numerous albums and collaborated with a wide range of artists.

Casa do Capitão is a cultural space located in the historic Alfama district of Lisbon. Originally a traditional Fado house – *casa de fado* – it has evolved into a venue hosting diverse musical performances while maintaining its intimate atmosphere and connection to Portuguese musical heritage. The building itself dates back several centuries and reflects the architectural style typical of the Alfama neighborhood. It’s known for its relatively small capacity which fosters a close connection between performers and audience members. The venue actively supports both established and emerging artists across various genres.
