For those of you who live close to NYC, this is a must see concert!!

“Ulisses Rocha has been considered to be one of Brazil’s finest guitarist/composers for over twenty years. He began playing and studying classical guitar at a young age. At the same time there was the ever present influence of Brazilian music and its abundance of great guitarist-composers. All these elements have combined to make him comfortable in playing a variety of musical styles while enabling him to insert his own distinguishable creative guitar style.

In the early 1980s he united with fellow guitar players André Geraissati and Mozart Mello to form the Group D’Alma. The eclectic styles performed by the group are said to have been an influence in the formation of the enormously successful trio of John McLaughlin, Paco de Lucia, and Al di Meola.”
