ALESSANDRO PENEZZI & ALEXANDRE RIBEIRO

Alessandro Penezzi gitaar, Alexandre Ribeiro klarinet

Brazilian guitarist Alessandro Penezzi plays extraordinary instruments, such as the seven string guitar, violão tenor (tenor guitar), cavaquinho (soprano guitar), as well as mandolin and flute. Penezzi is fascinated by the choro, an old Brazilian musical from, which leaves a lot of space for improvisation. Like his duo partner Alexandre Ribeiro he often works with jazz orchestras.
