He is a brilliant Brazilian composer, he writes and plays complicated and intricate music, also he uses virtually anything as a musical instrument, his name is Hermeto Pascoal and he is one of the greatest composers of his time.
He has played with many people in many places that range from the "Montreaux Jazz Festival" to a lagoon somewhere in Brazil (inside it!).
He uses tons of different elements from many cultures, complex latin rhythms, insane jazz chords, fast melodies, and even toys to compose extraordinary tracks.
Creativity and expression are two of the thousands of adjectives that we could use to describe his work. With a beautifully well structured language, everyone should be able to understand his message without lots of efforts, you just have to allow yourself to follow his music into places you probably have never gone before.
Here is the the first track from the album "Mundo Verde Esperança" (roughly translated as Green World Hope) from the fourteen tunes in this album thirteen were made as a homage to his grandchildren, each with the name of one of them, this one is called "Taiane".
