Dickson Quartet
Born in
Seville, Spain to a Danish father and Peruvian mother, with much of
her early childhood spent in Seville, and later Madrid, where she
attended The Swedish school. At the age of eight her family moved
to Denmark.
Denmark became her home for the next eighteen years during which time
her fascination with music grew. Brigitte has been performing for
over eighteen years and has appeared at many music festivals across
Europe. Brigitte has recently been the supporting act for amongst
others Celia Cruz, Orlando Cachaito Lopez, Buena Vista Social Club
and Afro Cuban All Stars.
Her natural talent for music and languages is wonderfully combined
on her new album, with songs in no less than five languages. Beautiful
melodies, traditional folk songs and upbeat jazz combine to create
an album that completes one journey but is also sure to be the start
of the next.
