Description
Allow the master of the keys Jose Roberto Bertrami to take you on a dazzling adventure of quirky 60s soundtracks and infectious 80s grooves. Legendary keyboardist Jose Roberto Bertrami showcases 45 sweeping years in music on 12 brand new recordings. Azymuth's band leader delivers an innovative set of jazz, cinematic scores and true Latin anthems. Latin Grammy nominee Zé Roberto brings together the Rio Strings Orchestra and the very best Brazilian players on these stunning live recordings.
Direct from Rio de Janeiro Bertrami's enduring passion and creativity combine to create a seminal solo collection. 'Aventura' is an authentic solo jazz project, steering away from Azymuth, drawing in tropical vibes and American influences to create the perfect slice of Bertrami's music culture. This is Bertrami's 7th album under his own steam following his previous solo effort for Far Out Recordings - 2001's grooving 'Things Are Different'.
In his early work he was using instruments and effects before anybody else in Latin America and 45 years later he's still pushing the boundaries. Now, Bertrami scores an innovative retrospective brimming with the inspired tripped-out funkiness of a sound still fresh. One of Brazil's most influential pianists Zé Roberto is a modern Brazilian genius who in 'Aventura' releases an influential solo recording that only adds to his reputation as the complete package - stylish, avid and masterful.
