Rosinha de Valenca

Anyone heard of this lady? Her right hand posture, arpegio and pulgar is flamenco.
How come a Brazilian woman plays Bossa nova and Brazilian pop music with a flamenco tone? Her wikipedia article says nothing about flamenco related stuff.

RE: Rosinha de Valenca (in reply to devilhand)

Her real name is Spanish rather than Portuguese so there might be something in the background not mentioned. However, I would say the Baden Powell influence, whom she worked with. People generally think his right hand tech is “classical” but clearly closer to a flamenco approach.
