Brazilian pianist/composer. She has studied Jazz Piano at the University of Music and Performing Arts Graz (Austria). Her discography (among project collaborations or as bandleader) includes 15 albums. “If Gonçalves’ strength across Casa is evoking warmth and calm, it peaks here [Choro de pai e mãe], leaving listeners wondering what the composer might do with an even fuller roster of musicians.” (Downbeat Magazine - Editor’s pick - October/ 2020 - the USA) “Her music offers the real depth, it can impress. It seems clear why at home in Brazil, Eloá collected festival awards, performed with several symphony orchestras, and quickly began to establish herself as a sidewoman of jazz and pop performers. Eloá moves in the fairly usual common space of jazz mainstream, inspired by classics and blood Latin music. However, well above the average, the melodic invention elevates the recording, in addition to the gentle moodiness and emotionality of the speech.” (Kulturní Magazín- June /2020 - Czech Republic) She has performed and/or recorded with both jazz and pop music artists such as Sandy, Zalon Thompson, Vinicius Dorin, Nailor Azevedo Proveta, Ivan Vilela, Marcelo Martins, Joe Fiedler (USA), Iñaki Askunze (Spain), Luis Bonilla (USA), Rafael de Lima Quartet, Trio Matiz, Algaravia, UNICAMP Symphony Orchestra, and KUG Jazz Orchestra (Austria).
