Opening song of the album "Capitao Nemo no Forró de Todos os Santos", issued in 1999. Players are: André Magalhães (drums), Giba Silva Pinto (bass), Paulo Campos (percusssion) Benjamin Taubkin (keyboards), myself on GR-50 Midi-Guitar, Ubaldo Versolatto (Baritone-sax and flutes), Marcelo Mangabeira and Paulo Pascali (tenor-saxes), Silvio de Pieri and Tiago Sormani (alto-saxes),and Mané Silveira (flutes and soprano-sax). Mané Silveira's performance is outstanding, with his unmistakable smooth sax sound, and the impro was captured in his first take. It is probably the most detailed score  I've written -- André thought we would never suceed in recording it all, but we did! The composition is dedicated to Maestro Moacir Santos.

While waiting [:a.cinema:] buddies to rehearse a Live-Cinema act, I started playing with my digital delay, creating some loop layers... This is a sample of the sounds I've been making nowadays on my own and with my fretless guitar... It was recorded by Dino Vicente with his IPhone...

11 enquanto a canção não vem

Hello,
I'm Sergio Basbaum. Born in São Paulo, Brazil, in 1964, of Jewish leftist parents, I started to play guitar when I was 11. I guess I just could do something resembling music when I was around 13 or something.  I was then living in Rio de Janeiro with my family, and started to get really involved with music, studying theory, harmony and other things. So, when I was 16 I had decided I'd like to be a professional musician. I came back to São Paulo, where I had many friends who were playing, commited to be a good jazz guitarrist, and had several different teachers, in jazz harmony, improvisation, arranging, composition, whatever there was to study. Around 1985 I was doing interesting gigs and was more or less known in the Sao Paulo scene. However, I couldn't make no money! (ok, there was a lot of crazyness going on those days....). So by the early 1990s I decided to go into college to study Cinema, and got a Bachelor's degree. And then, I got a master degree in Comunications and Semiotics, and eventually became a college teacher -- something I had never planned! This was in the same year when I issued my first album, "Capitao Nemo no Forró de Todos os Santos", a work you will find here, and which I still enjoy -- with more than 20 guest musicians helping me give life to compositions and arrangements. But things went well in the university, I made a doctorate also in C&S, and became an interdisciplinar researcher, dealing with amazing questions of art, technology and perception, really fascinating and contemporary stuff. I even made Post-Doc in Philosophy! As years passed, and a lot of water passed under the briddge, I started to play regularly again, and I have issued a second album in 2012 -- an album of songs, with great friends as very special guests. You can listen to those songs here as also. In the last three years or so, I also began to develop audiovisual performances with diferent teams -- you can find some of them in the links in this page. So, I'm happy with music and art again, and I hope music and art lovers may find pleasure in the sounds I make. Best vibes for you, friend!
