Ricardo Herz and Yamandu Costa
Violin and seven-string guitar meet in a Brazil of many musical accents. The rhythmic language of Ricardo Herz joins the power, freedom and cross-border musical influences of Yamandu Costa.
The duo brings together two distinct and complementary musical journeys. The accordion-like breath, folk-fiddle resonance and choro in Ricardo’s violin converse with the milonga, chamamé, choro and harmonic imagination of Yamandu’s guitar.
