RETRATOS: PORTRAITS OF BRASIL.

Doug de Vries & Caliente.

with Special Guest Yamandú Costa

A celebration of Brazilian instrumental music

Highlighting the rich guitar legacy of South America from choro, the quintessentially-Brazilian instrumental music, to tango and beyond.

Originating on the streets and salons of Rio de Janeiro, choro has its roots in Africa and the Iberian peninsula and has become the basis for the rich and vital music of Brazil, which has had a powerful influence on popular music worldwide.

Master guitarist Doug de Vries, Brazilian guitar virtuoso Yamandú Costa and choro-based trio Caliente come together in an intimate evening of exciting, multi-layered and deeply cultural music in tribute to some of Brazil's finest composers.

Hold onto your hats as these musicians bring you a vibrant evening of dextrous energy, wistful melancholy, spontaneity and humour in this colourful and highly improvisational showcase. Book now!

"Doug de Vries has long been revered for his magical playing and willingness and determination to explore new sounds and styles: (his) artistry is eloquent, joyous and exuberant."
