Septet

"Besides the exceptional playing the performance was also notable for the quality and maturity of Prado’s original writing. The Septet's debut album"Childhood" is a genuinely impressive piece of work."

Ian Mann 10/02/2020 (4/5 stars)

Matheus Prado Septet new album, Childhood, is released. You can get it in our shop.

Seven musicians bring together their eclectic musical backgrounds to form new connections between modern and traditional music. This is the Matheus Prado Septet.
British contemporary harmonies driven by energetic Brazilian and African rhythms create our unique aesthetic, where improvisation carves new musical pathways through every performance.

Their first album, Childhood, mixes original compositions with their own arrangements of other pieces, showing a variety of rhythms and melodies inspired in travels along Brazil and North Africa.

The arrangements uses all the versatility possible in a septet format, looking for a big band sound for a straight-ahead song or as a chamber orchestra for a classical piece.

The Septet toured Europe since their album released in Switzerland at Brienz and Langnau festivals.
Last year, they embarked in a South Spain tour, that apart from being a success, already gave them material to start their second album.
