Anne Boccato

Anne Boccato is a vocalist, percussionist, pianist, storyteller and educator born and raised in São Paulo, Brazil. She has been living in the United States for over 18 years – immersed in the arts scene in New York City, teaching private lessons and performing her own music, as well as collaborating with some wonderful musicians. She founded Asaran Earth Trio out of a desire to dig into her own Brazilian heritage through percussion and voice, and was delighted to watch it became a meeting place for many vocal and rhythmic traditions from around the world. Anne’s aim in all she does is to connect people to themselves and to each other through her art; be it through songs, stories or anything in between. Her love of folklore and languages is only matched by her love of watching her music students go “aha!” and smile with satisfaction.
