Experience Vinicius Gomes
Vinicius Gomes is a Brazilian guitarist and composer rapidly gaining international recognition for his innovative approach to *choro* – a complex and virtuosic instrumental Brazilian music genre. Born in 1992 in Rio de Janeiro, Gomes didn’t begin formal musical training until age 16, quickly mastering the *bandolim* (Brazilian mandolin) before transitioning to the seven-string guitar.
He’s a graduate of the Escola de Música de Brasília and has studied extensively with renowned *choro* masters like Hamilton de Holanda and Marco Pereira. Gomes doesn’t simply replicate tradition; he actively expands *choro’s* harmonic and rhythmic boundaries, incorporating influences from jazz, classical music, and contemporary Brazilian popular music.
His debut album, “Elo” (2019), received critical acclaim for its freshness and technical brilliance, earning him nominations for prestigious awards within Brazil. He frequently collaborates with leading figures in Brazilian music and performs internationally at major festivals including DjangoFest Northwest (USA). Gomes' playing is characterized by astonishing speed, melodic invention, and a deeply expressive tone, solidifying his position as a key figure in the revitalization of *choro*.
