Bossa nova queen

Lisa Ono (pictured) will warm you up with her sexy voice at her solo concert in Guangzhou on Dec 27. Born in Brazil, Ono popularized the Brazilian music genre that is a fusion of samba and jazz in Japan. Ono stands out from other bossa nova singers by enriching the music with elements from French chanson, classical jazz and music from regions like the Caribbean, Africa and the Middle East. At her concert, Ono will sing classics such as La Vie En Rose, Jambalaya and Teresa Teng's Evening Primrose and When Will You Return.

8 pm, Dec 27. Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall, 259 Dongfengzhong Road, Yuexiu district, Guangzhou. 020-8355-2030.
