Cesar Lima

Cesar Lima has joined the ranks of the finest living Cape Verdean guitarists. To appreciate Cesar's talent, we invite you to listen to his new album. This recording shows off Cesar's well refined guitar technique with a collection of melodies executed with ease.

Cesar is a master of blending the traditional Cape Verdean musical styles with contemporary arrangements. The songs included are a family affair as Cesar is joined by his mother, Lourdes Santos. Proceeds from the sale of the Reflections CD benefit the Cape Verde Children Project, which provides sponsorship service for Cape Verdean children.

Cesar was raised on the Island of Sao Vicente, where he grew up playing with and learning from musicians like Luis Morais, Vasco Martins and Bau. —Courtesy Calabash Music
