Boris Gaquere & Renato Martins : "Tempo Feliz"


"Tempo Feliz is a great recording, bare, sober, incisive, full of life and rhythm. An original duo formed of a Belgian guitarist and a Brazilian percussionist. The material is written and arranged by contemporary Brazilian guitarists and composers (Paulo Bellinati, Marco Pereira). Also to be found, music from Baden Powell and Luís Bonfá arranged by the great Sérgio Assad. Boris Gaquere also proposes his own music imbued with the colours of Brazil. There is in Boris a marvelous control of the guitar, a beautiful essential rhythmic sprightliness for this demanding repertoire. He finds in Renato Martins, straight out of São Paulo, an ideal partner for these melodies.” Philip Catherine
Fantastique le résultat atteint par ces deux musiciens de formations tellement différentes. La rencontre de la virtuosité expressive de Boris Gaquere et de la précision rythmique de Renato Martins, appliquées à la musique écrite par les grands compositeurs de la guitare brésilienne, montre que la musique n'a pas de frontières, et que tout est possible quand c'est le talent qui est en question. (Ulisses Rocha - guitariste & compositeur brésilien)
