Description:
“From his first love, Capoeira, Alberto Salgado, who began his career in 1999, has retained this quest for balance that still drives him today. By linking the raw and organic sounds of berimbau and atabaque to those of classical guitar and electronic rhythms, Alberto Salgado seeks to illustrate the challenges that development poses to the preservation of nature, and especially water. Winner of the 28th Brazilian Music Prize in 2017, this author, composer, arranger, multi-instrumentalist and performer, who has collaborated with Chico Buarque and Chico César, is giving new life to the popular rhythms of Baião and Xaxado.”
