This song, composed by M. C. Guarnieri, reminds me the traditional songs of the brazilian sertanejo cowboys.

The composition brings a game between rhythms in five and four. So does the animated art, playing with the difference between squares and pentagons.

I've made this arrangement to a bass clarinet, which brings  the breath of melancholy, and vibraphone.

In the next Episode this melancholy feel goes to different places.

 Life, Sand and Movement

In this arrangement I traced a long path from melancholy to joy. In this movement the images and sound move from a night mood to a sunshine energy.

Ponteio nº16 - Final Ep./Full Song

The original version of this song brings a deep and, also, beautifull Brazilian melancholy of the "sertão" cowboys.

In my arrangement I traced a long path from this melancholy to joy.

Using solar and circular movements, Lucas brought visual life for this song!

Ponteio nº16 - Episode IV


Multiple rhythmic plans always enchanted me. In this arrangement I used polyrhythm as a variation resource and the gif animation (made by Lucas Filipe) shows this very well!

Ponteio nº16 - Episode III

It’s impossible to make music alone, I believe that the greatest wealth in this art is in the encounter.

For that reason this piece brings a flash photo from my sound brothers and sisters whom make my music possible and alive!

Thank you very much folks! This is about music process.

Três Barras

Saci is a well-known character of the Brazilian mythology.

He has a pipe, a magical red hood and only one leg.

He is always messing around.

Night travelers fear his whistles but he is not evil, just like to joke.

His name has Tupi-Guarani origin.

Três Barras it's a wonderful waterfall in Chapada Diamantina - Bahia - Brazil.

After spending 20 days immersed in this place with some of my best friends, I just sat at the piano and composed this song.

In my album I recorded it with full band, but it was on piano and voice that she was born. Just like this solo performance!
