Duo GURIMBADU
From the artistic and academic activities developed by the musicians Eudoro Grade (guitar) and Vasco Ramalho (marimba) it was possible to design a project that would provide the interaction between the gentleness and melodic poetry of the marimba with the freedom and exaltation of the guitar.
The mixture results in a timeless, non-conformist sound, in an intimate identification of African and European matrix, a metamorphosis of sounds and moments which enthral and surprise us.
The "Timeless Sounds" project, calls us therefore to a repertoire of both structural improvisations as well as melodic motifs of ethnic inspiration or theme "songs" focused on the construction of traditional sounds, in a strong rescue proposal of contemporary musicality.
Guirimbadu has performed in several national and international music festivals.
