Introduction:
Yamandu Costa, 7-string guitar virtuoso, is one of the few Gaucho instrumental music composers, extremely gifted musician and incredible improviser and now at the age of 27, with his distinct way of playing, already a reference for the younger guitar generation.
Influenced by many great musicians like Lucio Yanel (from Argentina), Raphael Rabelo (Brazil), Baden Powell (Brazil) and Django Reinhart (France), Yamandu has created his very particular style of compositions, somewhere between Choro, Samba, Milonga and Chamame with finger acrobatic like passages, high tempo and yet very delicate and melodious pieces. For the audience his music is somewhere between breathtaking and breath holding, accompanied by Yamandu´s way of melting with his instrument and being one for the duration of the concert.
Yamandu is embracing the range of Root-Latin-American music with a clear basis on Southbrazilian swing.
