FLÁVIO APRO SOLO

"Nowadays, the name of Flavio Apro must be included among a very selected guitarists team. This young Brazilian artist has been lavishing musicality associated to a flawless performance on the guitar. Vital elements that only a few reach since the most of them are victims of vulgar interpretation fashions, literary ignorance of the work and the composer to be worked out, and all this, together with a deficit technique.

 

Such praises for Flavio are not superficial because when he presents his work, no matter if live or on recordings, we are able to follow his beautiful phrasings blended in a pulsating and well-designed rhythmic relationship, which are enough refinements to rank him on an equal level with other international artists.

 

This new phonograph record, O VIOLAO BRASILEIRO (The Brazilian Guitar), which is born as a milestone in the career of our young interpreter brings us the assurance that hearing to Brazilian classical music can be a treat even for those who are not accustomed to this form of language. And to top it off so many qualities, Flavio still offers us a clever repertoire, filled with many variants and colorful musicianship."
