What happens when you bring together the world's greatest seven-string guitarist and one of the world's most extraordinary and unique voices? The answer to this question is found in one of the best possible live performances: the excellence and mastery of Yamandu Costa on guitar creates the ideal atmosphere for the exquisite and warm voice of António Zambujo to flood the space and envelop the audience.
Prenda minha (2024) reflects the friendship of these geniuses for more than 15 years and their level of absolute complicity in 14 songs that combine Portuguese and Brazilian music with some songs in Spanish.
Ambassador of Ibero-American Culture and considered one of the greatest talents of the seven-string guitar, Yamandu Costa freely develops his musical creativity based on an absolutely perfect technique. With more than 50 albums released, the Brazilian is one of the most prolific musicians of his generation. He has shared the stage with figures such as Bobby McFerrin, Gilberto Gil, Richard Galliano and Melody Gardot. His latest awards include, the 2021 Latin Grammy, together with Toquinho, for Best Instrumental Album for Live at Rio Montreux Jazz Festival and the 2023 Brazilian Music Awards 2023 for Best Soloist and Best Instrumental Album for Simpatia.
António Zambujo is one of the greatest representatives of Portuguese music, culture and language. He exhibits an exceptional talent for fusion and bringing to life his own compositions or those of legends such as Tom Jobim, Chico Buarque and Carlos do Carmo. His album Voz & violão (2021) was number one in sales in Portugal. In 2023 he filled the Super Bock Arena in Oporto for 6 days in a row with more than 48,000 tickets sold. In 2015 he received the Order of Infante Don Enrique for his service to the dissemination of Portuguese culture, history and values.
