My journey through clubs, bars, and event circuits has taught me that a great performance requires a balance between technical precision and the ability to adapt to the moment.
Holding a Master’s degree in Musical Composition and a Bachelor’s in MPB (Musical Arrangement), I approach every project with both academic depth and practical intuition. While my background in Rock, Pop, Funk and other genres allows me to master complex r
... epertoires, I pride myself on being an adaptive musician. I understand that live music often calls for moving beyond the original recording—whether through creative improvisation or tailoring an arrangement to suit the energy of the crowd. My goal is always to serve the song and the band, providing a solid, soulful foundation that elevates the entire performance."
