No young musician, but to the guitarist gaucho Yamandú Costa has the prestige so high in Brazil and around the world as the Rio mandolinist Hamilton de Holanda, the guy who not only reinvented the mandolin - inspired at first by mandolin master Jacob do - but also innovated the way to play choro, adding harmony, arrangement, improvisation and marrying it with other Brazilian rhythms and international standards and it is amazing how he built this way 'identities as modern, but without neglecting the tradition of the great masters choro and Brazilian popular music. I have seen some critics saying the style of Hamilton de Holanda is something like a cry-jazz - actually, I like the atmosphere of wealth in his music which, consequently, leaves inrotulável. The definition of short and concise young master ETFs on your own website (you only need to put your name on Google)
"Virtuoso, brilliant and unique are some of the adjectives listed in the career of Hamilton de Holanda, who audiences ablaze all over the world, building a particular career of countless awards. When you add two extra strings, 10 in total, reinvented the mandolin. The cry until then his influence increased, despite the purists, it becomes a reference and before him a new world full of possibilities. With a new way to play, increasing the number of strings, and decibels, coupled with the speed solos and improvisations, Hamilton repaginates the image of this iconic Australian instrument releasing the legacy of some of his influences and genres. Born in a new generation's interest to make a new sound, a new timbre. If it's jazz, samba, rock, pop, lundu or crying, no longer matters. It is the freshness of the music focused on the beauty and spontaneity without borders. Rise motto "Modernity and Tradition", the important thing is not the past nor the future, but the meeting between the two, "is" - the present moment, the here and now.
With superb technique and absolute Brazilianness, either on stage or in the studio, Hamilton de Holanda (33) takes the breath away with its own interpretations and performances filled with emotion. His versatility allows him to perform with property in any training: solo, with orchestra, duo, power trio, quintet and other .... He is currently touring with his award-winning group, Hamilton de Holanda Quintet formed by Daniel Santiago (guitar), André Vasconcellos (bass), Gabriel Grossi (harmonica) and Márcio Bahia (drums). For those who are interested in the art of this great Brazilian musician much admired by musicians and singers of Brazilian popular music, I suggest you look for the album Brasilianos where Hamilton leads that his great quintet: two volumes of his own compositions and interpretations fantastic. Blogging Farofa Modern Portal MTV left a track and two videos, where Hamilton talks about the great quintet and hard Brasilianos.
