DUO SOUZA/HAFFNER CHORO-JAZZ Brazil

Description

Rogério Souza: 7 string guitar
Matthias Haffner: pandeiro, Brazilian percussion

Rogério Souza and Matthias Haffner met for the first time a few years ago in Rotterdam, The Netherlands, where they played together during the Choro-Festival at the EPM Holanda, the first Choro school outside Brazil. Choro is a Brazilian music style born around 1880, that combines European dances with African rhythms. Haffner teaches Brazilian percussion, mainly the Brazilian frame-drum: the Pandeiro. Souza is a 7-string guitarist, composer and arranger - born in Rio de Janeiro, he is one of the great representatives of the Carioca language of the Brazilian guitar and played with nearly all big names in Choro and Samba. After Haffner moved to Berlin in 2016, they met again to form this new and exciting Duo. Haffner´s skills on the Pandeiro and his deep knowledge about the Samba and Choro as well as Souza´s virtuosity and musicality on the 7-string guitar blend perfectly into a transparent, complex texture of stirring rhythms and beautiful harmonies.
They perform Souza´s own compositions and classical Choro and Samba tunes with a contagious enthusiasm on the highest musical level.
