Hermeto Pascoal

Nobody can be called a musician with as much justice as the Brazilian Hermeto Pascoal.

Admired by musicians of the stature of Astor Piazzolla or Miles Davis, the "crazy albino" is not satisfied with his ability to play the most varied instruments with excellence.

He can make music with any element: he turned teapots, jars or tubes into instruments and has included in his albums sounds of pigs, parrots and a varied fauna with which he claims to be able to communicate.

His music encompasses styles such as bossa, northeastern forró, free jazz, baión, classical music and even tango, but there is an extra-musical background in this amplitude: in his exploration of new sounds the search for elemental unity is hidden.
