Merrimans' Playhouse Jazz Performance Series presents Renato Anesi
Renato Anesi was born in 1969 in Rio de Janeiro. His work is the result of intense musical experience as a child. His father, a guitarist and cavaco player, was his first teacher. Renato grew up playing choros and sambas of Noel Rosa, Pixinguinha, Jacob do Bandolim and others. Renato belongs to the young rock and jazz generation of contemporary Brazil, however, his musical roots integrate the tradition of many different styles of Brazilian instrumental music - choro, waltz, baiĆ£o, frevo, maracatu, etc. With this material he has built a unique style, featuring a music universe committed only with creativity. Founder and leader of the "Corda Coral" Trio, Anesi became one of the key names in Brazilian Contemporary Instrumental Music.
This remarkable show is marked by the intimate quality of a chamber music recital. What we see and hear as audience members is the deep connection between a musician and his instruments.
Anesi is a master of a range of stringed instruments used in Brazilian music from the open tuned viola caipira with its bell-like tones to the playfully expansive tenor guitar, from the baroque requinto guitar to the rich and resonant classical guitar and in his all guitars solo show the audience has the rare oportunity to discover great Brazilian composers such as Pixinguinha, Waldir Azevedo and Chico Buarque interpreted on these various instruments.
Anesi's use of the tenor guitar is of particular note, as he applies a classical guitarist's technique to the four-stringed instrument, producing melodic flourishes and harmonic voicings of arresting beauty.
