About this Event
Hailed by The Boston Globe as a "premier exponent of Chamamé", Brazil-based Argentine composer, accordionist, and researcher Alejandro Brittes explores his chamamé heritage, an ancestral rhythm born of the encounter between the ritual musicality and cosmovision of the Indigenous Guaraní and the Baroque music played the Jesuit missions in a cultural microregion encompassing Argentina, central and southern Brazil, Paraguay and Uruguay. Following the success of his 2023 U.S. East Coast tour, Brittes begins a tour through the West and Midwest. His quartet is composed of André Ely on the 7-stringed Brazilian guitar, Carlos de Césaro on electric bass/contrabass, and Alejandro Brittes on González system button accordion.
