One repertoire in three languages
From timeless classics to movie soundtracks: the world’s best-loved songs, in the voices of Emy LaPell and Edu Caldera.
LAPPEL is born from two paths that crossed very different worlds. On one side, Emy LaPell, the Cuban voice who has sung across the globe: from the Dead Sea to Dubai, from Egypt to the Caribbean. On the other, Edu Caldera, a composer and music producer from Minas Gerais with 300+ productions to his name, a musical and series on Amazon Prime Video and millions of views on YouTube. A multi-instrumentalist at home in many genres, he moves between theater and film, and was nominated for the Kikito for Best Original Score at the 53rd Gramado Film Festival, representing Minas Gerais.
Now these two universes come together in original songs and a repertoire of signature reinterpretations, crafted with the finesse of those who live music from the inside. The project moves between three worlds: Brazilian music in Portuguese, Latin music in Spanish and pop in English. In all three languages, the duo writes, reimagines and creates.
Two fronts drive LAPPEL: the 2026 tour across Minas Gerais and surrounding regions, from October to December, and our debut album of original songs, which we are now writing and producing.
In Kintsugi, the Japanese art of mending with gold, the scar becomes the most beautiful part of the piece. That is LAPPEL: stories of departures and new beginnings, stitched together with gold.
Brazilian music: bossa nova, MPB, Minas Gerais’ Clube da Esquina and Brazilian pop rock, reimagined by a Cuban voice.
BRAZILEmy’s roots: boleros, Cuban son, salsa and the Latin pop that gets any room dancing.
CUBA · LATINOAMÉRICAThe international pop universe: soul, jazz, disco, rock and the great classics of the 70s, 80s and 90s.
WORLDWIDEFrom Havana to Uberaba: the stages that shaped Emy LaPell’s voice, all the way to her meeting with Edu Caldera.
Emy LaPell is a Cuban artist with an international career. She started out as a dancer in Russia, was a showwoman in the Caribbean (Barbados and St. Vincent & the Grenadines) and joined the cast of Neverland in Egypt.
She spent about four years in Jordan, singing in luxury hotels on the Dead Sea for audiences from all over the world, and later performed in Dubai at hotels, weddings, private parties and events.
She sings in English, Spanish and Portuguese and moves through pop, soul, jazz, blues, funk, disco, reggae and Latin music. On stage she brings together voice, guitar, dance and real connection with the audience.
Edu Caldera is from Minas Gerais and based in Uberaba, Brazil, with 15+ years on stage and 300+ productions. He plays 20+ instruments and creates with a synesthetic eye: he sees colors in sound and brings that into both music and image.
Every stage, a one-of-a-kind experience.

A journey through styles, languages and art forms. Music, dance and theater on one stage.
Every LAPPEL show can come with marketing: from strategic event promotion to a complete audiovisual campaign produced by iART.
Beyond the show, the project can include a strategic promotion campaign designed to boost visibility for the event, the artists and the venue itself. It uses paid ads and project content to reach the right local audience, growing the event’s digital presence and strengthening the venue’s brand.
A complete marketing and filming system: the show is recorded live, the venue’s products are shot like a film, and it all becomes a campaign ready for social media.
Optional · Signature Score. An original piece composed by Edu Caldera for your brand, becoming the venue’s sonic identity in videos and on site.
Pick the language, the decade and the flavor of the night. 150 songs, and the repertoire adapts to every event.
