Luiz de Aquino
Luiz De Aquino is a Brazilian singer-songwriter and guitarist living in France for more than a decade. His album Esquina do Tempo (A Corner of Time) released by the French label NextMusic and produced by Nectar-Prose, explores the richness of Brazilian music. Think about cool Brazilian vocals, acoustic guitar "A la Baden Powell" with Jobim jazz vibe, nice Latin percussions and a touch of Brazilian MPB and folk.
Luiz hails from Sao Paulo, Brazil, where he completed studies in classical music and jazz, musicology and composition which led him to work with a number of internationally renowned artists including Abel Carlevaro and Turibio Santos in South America and Alexandre Lagoya in France. Composer, author and virtuoso guitarist, Luiz has penned several works for film and television and works regularly with Koka Zomba, France's number 1 Production Library and member of the BMG Music Publishing Group. He has appeared on a number of recordings and compilations for Universal, M10, Pias, XIIIBis, Buda, Origins and Auvidis .
Soloist and much appreciated accompanist, Luiz's insatiable curiosity and taste for other cultures has influenced his work as has the music of composers like Joao Gilberto, Gismonti and J.S. Bach. Particularly sensitive to trends in new music, the colors he chooses to create with vary from hip-hop and jazz to rap, electro and world-beat.
