Salvador Sobral

TIMBRE marks the long-awaited recording return of Salvador Sobral. The fourth studio album by the Portuguese musician includes 11 new original songs, 10 written in collaboration with Leo Aldrey, also responsible for the album production.

“al llegar”, a surprising duet with Jorge Drexler released digitally on the 14th of April, is the first single of this new album that will be released on the 29th of September 2023.

"The name TIMBRE arose for two main reasons. The first, perhaps the most obvious, is because first and foremost in this life I am a singer, a performer, and what defines and distinguishes me the most is my voice, my timbre. The second reason is that I am interested in the concept of timbre as color, the color of the voice, the color of the instruments. The record will be like a colorful palette of timbres that trigger clarity.

Ah! And there is a third reason for the name of the album, the word timbre is used in many Latin and Germanic languages. It is spelled the same and means the same. It seems that the concept of TIMBRE is universal, and we all agree on that." - Salvador Sobral.
