About the Album
"Bossa Breeze" is a living testament to how music transcends borders and identities. What began as Lalo Schifrin’s instrumental meditation six decades ago has been reborn through Alex Sino’s lyrics, Terry Heimat Production, and the voices of a truly multicultural ensemble. The lead voice belongs to Liza Kenia, a Georgian‑born singer who lives in New York, whose artistry was recognized early when she became a child prodigy and finalist on The Voice Kids at just fifteen. She is joined by Rayco B. Batista, a Cuban‑born rapper from Miami and singer, who featured along with Diego Torres, Shakira, Lenny Agutin, and Luis Enrique, whose rhythmic fire adds a contemporary pulse; Terry Heimat, a Ukrainian-born Producer, Conductor, and Arranger; Kostia Lucky, a Ukrainian‑born virtuoso-violinist who lives in Miami, and whose playing carries both virtuosity and the echoes of Eastern European tradition; the principal cellist of the Zhangjiajie Philharmonic Orchestra (China) Denis Dmitriev who adds a deep, warm palette to the track's sound, and Milton Salcedo, the Grammy Award‑winning Colombian pianist and arranger whose touch anchors the piece with elegance and depth of Latin tradition.
Producing a song, Alex Sino teamed up with Terry Heimat, a conductor, composer, arranger, and multi-instrumentalist, with whom they produced several critically acclaimed albums. Among them are Domus Solis and Alma Libre. Together with Terry, Milton Salcedo, and Rayko Battista, they arranged the song with a new vision and added a hip-hop part.
