The 12th edition of the Port Adriano Festival will host the performance of the veteran Brazilian composer and guitarist Antônio Pecci Filho, artistically known as Toquinho, on Saturday 3rd August. He will be accompanied on the PAM stage by one of the most avant-garde voices of Nova Música Popular Brasileira, Camilla Faustino, with a recital that will transport Port Adriano to the very Rio de Janeiro of all times.
Music critics consider Paulo Antônio Pecci Filho, Toquinho, to be an indispensable reference point for Brazilian music on a global scale. The composer and guitarist, born in São Paulo in 1946, has recorded 85 albums, 500 compositions and nearly 10,000 shows in Brazil and the rest of the world. In 2023, he celebrated the 55th anniversary of his career.
Toquinho manages to make his guitar playing sound organic, simple, caressing the strings, passing through the frets with a dexterity and mastery that, nevertheless, he manages to keep underneath all the feeling he transmits. He defines himself as a guitarist and composer rather than a singer. But all this together has made him a legend, with more than 80 albums released. Camilla Faustino is one of the current leading voices of the ‘Nova MPB’. The 34-year-old singer from Goiânia started singing at a very young age. With her latest album ‘Bossa, sempre Bossa’, she was nominated for a Latin Grammy for her ability to move through modern genres such as electronica, rock and pop in harmony with bossa nova. It is precisely in harmony that she has been singing on the main stages of Europe and America with Toquinho for twelve years.
