Quinteto Amazonas was a brazilian samba-jazz group based in the city of São Paulo dedicated to a repertoire of MPB and Bossa Nova song classics in new arrangements inspired in jazz and classical music crossover techniques and featuring the voice of lead singer Carla Casarim.
The group was founded in 2012 by singer Carla Casarim, pianist and arranger Matthias Vogt, trumpeter Wesley Gonzaga, bassist Renan Dias and drummer Marcus Simon. The group used to play concerts until 2018 when it was paused due to other musical commitments of its integrants.
