Born in Rio de Janeiro, Carolina is a natural singer with a very colorful and expressive voice, which is well suited to Brazilian music. Although she showed great musical skills from childhood, she decided to study physiotherapy at the Centro Universitário Moacyr Bastos in Rio de Janeiro, where she graduated in 2002. During her university years, Carolina joined the school’s symphonic choir, where her beautiful and natural voice found a renaissance. As a member of the choir she appeared in prominent concert halls in Rio de Janeiro and São Paulo. In 2000, she joined the chamber choir Madrigal Moacyr Bastos and has frequently appeared as their soloist. She joined, in 2008, the vocal sextet BeBossa. This a cappella ensemble from Rio de Janeiro – which cultivates sophisticated sonorities making Brazilian Pop music with jazz and blues influences – released a recording, in 2009, at SaladeSom Records. Since 2003, Carolina has been a part of the Assad Family ensemble, originally in a septet, a unique ensemble of three generations of a same family who released the DVD A Moment of Pure Love and the CD A Brazilian Songbook at GHA Records in 2006. As of 2011, the Assad Family has been touring as a quintet in Europe and in the USA. In this ensemble Carolina sings along with her uncle and her father, Sergio and Odair Assad (guitars), her aunt Badi Assad (vocals, guitar and percussion) and her cousin Clarice Assad (vocals and piano).
