For Brazilian pianist Antonio Adolfo and singer Carol Saboya, music is more than just a passion. It's part of their DNA.

"I think it's a genetic thing. I was born with it, with this desire to do something artistic," says Saboya, who also happens to be Adolfo's daughter.

The desire may have been there from the beginning, but growing up listening to her father compose melodies in the piano has helped. Adolfo has released 25 albums of Brazilian jazz and other popular rhythms, and has toured with iconic Brazilian singers and musicians such as Elis Regina and Milton Nascimento.

Adolfo and Saboya will perform together Jan. 3 at the Arts Garage in Delray Beach. They'll perform songs from their most recent album together, "Here and There," which features Brazilian and American jazz songs, and songs from their next album, "Copa Village," to be released on Feb. 10.
