Mila Dores
‘With an ear towards contemporary composition and improvisation, Mila is a vocal sculptress - extending the palate of the human voice toward Berberian proportions. (…) Maria's talent and ability to apply herself to any given musical situation with versatility and ears that are WIDE open....’ (Matthew Bourne, 2001 Perrier Young Jazz Musician of the Year)
A strong reconnection with the Portuguese musical roots grew from moving to England in her early adulthood. ‘Fado’ and ‘Cantares Alentejanos’ are now a big influence in her music alongside with Jazz and Hindustani music. Mila also works as a performance artist and play writer.
