"THE PORTUGUESE PERCUSSIONIST HAS MADE AN ART OUT OF CREATING UNIQUE HYBRID SETS FOR EACH ACT HE SUPPORTS"

JERRY ZACARIAS

Latin Percussion - Artist Relationship

A PERCUSSIONIST IS ON STAGE, PUTTING THE FINAL TOUCHES TO A SET-UP CAREFULLY CHOSEN TO EMBRACE EVERY MOMENT OF THE WIDE-RANGING MUSIC THAT WE WILL PERFORM AND WHICH HE HAS CLEARLY STUDIED IN ADVANCE. THIS MUST BE A KINDRED SPIRIT WHO ALSO BELIEVES THAT LUCK FAVOURS THE PREPARED MIND.

HE INTRODUCES HIMSELF AS IÚRI OLIVEIRA AND SO BEGINS AN UNFORGETTABLE WEEK OF COLLABORATION
