Sambrasa Trio

about

Sambrasa Trio is Hermeto Pascoal (piano and flute), Humberto Clayber (bass and harmonica) and Airto Moreira (drums). The group started to play in 1965, recording only one, though seminal record in the same year, "Em Som Maior". A fundamental masterpiece and perfect example and influence of the so-called brazilian jazz, "Em Som Maior" is created among explosive grooves squeezing the virtuosis out of their instruments, all gathered and mixed with avantgarde recreations of traditional brazilian themes and bossa nova songs together with blistering, neat samba-jazz. The album was praised by critics and helped launch each musician own solo careers. After the demise of the group, none of its three members played together again. However, in pairs, they composed for other bands, after and before Sambrasa Trio, such as Sambalanço Trio, with Clayber and Airto, and Quarteto Novo, with Hermeto and Airto. All three members follow a solo career and inumerous collaborations with musicians such as Miles Davis, Wayne Shorter, Santana, Chick Corea, Duke Pearson, Opa, Egberto Gismonti, among many others.
