Le Nuvole
Duo · Based in Brisbane
About this act
Guitar and cello, which is an unusual pairing and the reason Le Nuvole sound like nothing else on a wedding shortlist. Mircha Mangiacotti moves between bossa, folk and gypsy jazz. Emma Hales is classically trained and pushes the cello well past where you'd expect it to go. Italian, Brazilian and Irish heritage all feed into the repertoire, which mixes originals with reworked standards and traditional tunes: Besame Mucho, All of Me, Dos Gardenias, Cavatina, Anema e core, Hallelujah. Requests are welcome. One thing worth knowing when you plan the space, they need cover, because those instruments won't go out in full sun or rain.
