I'm thrilled to share that "Atom & Void", directed by Gonçalo Almeida and featuring an original score composed by me, has been nominated for the 2025 Sophia Awards — one of the most prestigious film honors in Portugal.
The winners will be announced on April 27. I'm truly grateful to have contributed to this powerful film and to see it receive such recognition.
Portuguese jazz bassist and composer André Carvalho is an active NYC freelancer whose works AllAboutJAzz described as “both in bounds and out of this world.” Nate Chinen of The New York Times dubbed Carvalho a bassist “you should get to know.” He’s played with Jazz stars Chris Cheek, Will Vinson, and Tommy Crane. And André’s performance credits range from the Colors Jazz Festival (Paris), the Cairo Jazz Festival, and Jazz Festival Ljubliana, to venues such as Blue Note (New York), Konzerthaus Berlin, and Casa da Música (Porto).
