Grupo Nave-Mãe
Hermeto Pascoal’s Mothership
Nave-Mãe brings together the musicians who have accompanied Hermeto Pascoal on stage and in the studio for decades, now performing tribute concerts with a repertoire 100% composed by Hermeto. This is the artistic core that experienced his Música Universal on a daily basis: precise writing, collective improvisation, and fearless timbral exploration.
The program traverses several eras (classics, rarities, and recent works) in arrangements by the Maestro. The set-list is shaped for each date to celebrate the composer, multi-instrumentalist, and "wizard" who has released over 35 albums, composed more than 10,000 pieces, and forged concepts like Música Universal and Som da Aura.
