The bandolim, the Brazilian mandolin, is much loved in its country of origin. Hamilton de Holanda is one of the greatest bandolim virtuosos of all time and with his innovative style he makes the instrument sound fresh and contemporary. His duo with pianist and fellow countryman André Mehmari guarantees fireworks. Together they will pay tribute to two legends: guitarist Egberto Gismonti and pianist Hermeto Pascoal, who have won an international audience for Brazilian jazz with their compositions. ‘Stellar… two masters having a conversation’ (Jazz Review).

Homage to Egberto Gismonti & Hermeto Pascoal
