SAUDADE DO PENEZZI - Yamandu Costa

This piece is a tribute from Yamandu Costa to one of his great colleagues and friends : Alessandro Penezzi, a preminent guitarist on brazilian musical scene nowadays.
Yamandu ocsta recounts that : " When the melody started to come together I felt like it reminded me of a guitarist that I love and have been a partner of for many years, Alessandro Penezzi! This possibility that music gives us to try to compose within the language of another musician is very interesting"...."The references of the honoree are clear but at the same time it is still your composition. It would be a mix between your personality and that of your friend "
I think art shows us the power of generosity and empathy.
I leave you with this hug to this incredible musician who takes our language to a very high level.
