Musicians Rão Kyao and Zé Eduardo will meet again in a concert on the open-air stage of República 14, in Olhão, this Saturday, May 11th, at 21 pm.
«After more than four decades of invaluable contributions to music in Portugal and beyond, these two icons of the national music scene, Rão Kyao and Zé Eduardo, are preparing for a historic moment of musical reunion», highlights the space from Olhão. It will be “a unique night of musical celebration”.
Rão Kyao, the virtuoso flutist known for transcending musical borders by crossing the influence of Jazz and Indian music, meets José Eduardo, the renowned double bassist, also a pioneer of Jazz who shaped the panorama of his teaching as a trainer and educator of several generations of musicians. Both are pioneers in their respective approaches to music, as interpreters and inspirers of new generations of musicians.
The bond between these two musicians dates back to the 70s, when Zé Eduardo accompanied the then saxophonist in several groups and in numerous concerts throughout the country.
Zé Eduardo is with Rão Kyao when he records his debut album “Malpertuis”, released in 1976, and follows him for a long time, having even participated with him at the Cascais Jazz Festival.
After a musical hiatus, destiny once again traced its paths in tribute concerts to Luís Villas Boas, a fundamental figure in the dissemination of jazz in Portugal. The reunion rekindled the flame of musical collaboration between Rão Kyao and Zé Eduardo, leading them to hope to return to the stage together.
And this is how «Reencontro» was born, a concert that promises to transcend time in an epic encounter between two musical giants and that is a celebration, not only of their long and rich musical trajectory, but also a tribute to the lasting friendship that unites them. . With them will be Renato da Silva Júnior on keyboards, a musician who normally accompanies Rão Kyao in his group and who will be a special guest at this «Reencontro».
