....just when you think that he's not going to land in time..There he is!
Airto can play a brazillion rhythms at the same time! :P
Flora & Airto are my ex-inlaws. Airto could "play" anything!! He found an instrument in Africa that he used for the purcolator sound on the Maxwell House commercials. It sat on the coffee table so the grand kids could play it. Find, if you can his tamborine & whistle solo. He got a standing ovation every time I saw him perform it. The best percussionist I've ever seen.
This man has an understanding of music most of us could only dream of.
He's Great.
How True 💯💯
Saw him with one of my two best friends at Yoshi's in Oakland. We both broke out laughing when he started to play one of the walls with his drum sticks during a tune. Such understated elegance and humor from a master musician.
Absolutely the best drummer percussion player the great Airto Moreira, and his wife Flora Purim ,
Airto Is Fire. He Is SO Underrated. Such An Amazing Musician. This Was Beautiful. Thank You.
Not to me ive been following him along time
Oh Yess.... This is Absolute Gold Right Here.... Airto is in a World of Music and a Class All His Own ☺☺😎👊💯💖
..Pilot/Co Pilot.... Excellent Analogy Mr Moreira 😎👊💯💯
Force of nature. Fourth World was one of the greatest live bands I have ever seen. I saw the version with electric bass player Gary Brown and Giovanni Hildalgo on congas and extra percussion. They also had a sax/flute player and separate keyboard player. Gary Meek was gone by then but his replacements were great players. Flora came out in leather pants and was a complete rockstar. She was amazing.
Airto played his pandero solo and made it sound like a full samba section. The whole club was not just dancing but going crazy. He blurs the line between music and magic.
Two of the best artists to have ever worked with Chick Corea!
Flora Purim , is my favourite singer/vocalist.
One of the best on the planet.Airto!
in the history of the planet ....
He is the best!
I discovered Airto at age 15 while listening to a "Krakus Polish ham" commercial on WRVR radio, NYC back in the early 70's. The DJ used an Airto tune from the album "Fingers" in the background while he talked about the ham! Coincidentally, I had just joined Columbia House record club and was awaiting my first shipment of 13 records for a dollar. Low and behold, somehow I ordered "Fingers" with those first 13, I guess without even knowing who Airto was, and when I played the album, it blew my mind. It still blows my mind. I love this guy. I love his music. I feel so lucky to have stumbled on it.
I'm 57. Heard Him for the first time w Chick and Flora in 1972. He's Amazing.
Perhaps the DJ was hamming it up. :)
@@MatthiasLeue LOL!
DE LOS MAIS GRANDES MUSICOS DU PLANETA
The various hits and accents that he does on the upbeats are just so hip!!! Beautiful rolls coming out of the grooves too!!! Woweee!!! Airto's overall feel and energy are just "SUPERSONIC."
What a beautiful worth watching doc.! Thanks for sharing!!
I saw Fourth World, in the 1990's in Ann Arbor, MI, at the (new) The Ark venue - what a mind blowing concert, just a beautiful evening for the audience! Ended up seeing two gigs in a row that same night. Also, I had the pleasure to hang out and chat a bit with the band afterwards - amazing human beings, forever thankful myself!
I know Airto is not feeling well lately - so I want to send him my best wishes of a solid recovery and peace of mind! We love your music man!
Abraço amigo!!
Great insight into Airto and his percussion development and influences. I had the good luck to sit 2 meters away from him whilst his blew us away in Ronnie Scotts in London. I sneaked my camera in and took some black and white shots with a very grainy film, they came out great. When I left I was speechless and had to go and sit quietly to take in what I had just witnessed it was very spiritual. thanks Airto I will never forget it.
Uma Aula de Bateria e Percusão! Show!
maravilhosos musicos!!!!! do Brasil....
yeah NETO! killing it my brother! and everyone else also. Airto is the most underrated musician of the '60s and '70s. as good a drummer as any of the superstars, the best percussionist, and a great writer and singer.
I love Airto's singing voice, as well as all of the vocal effects he is able to make. His voice blends perfectly with Flora's and they have written some amazing tunes.
You are totally right about his drumming and percussion. He makes it sound as easy as breathing. One of the best, and an amazing ambassador for Brazilian music.
Epic! I’m obsessed with Brazilian music 🎶
Had the great pleasure of working with this man more than once. His soul breathes music !
Who are you?
UNO DE MIS GRANDES MAESTROS AIRTO MOREIRA Y NANA VASCONCELOS, ME MOTIVARON A APRENDER LA PERCUCION BRASILERA....POR LOS 80s
Really cool when he talks about how his father was a spiritual healer and how he thinks about and taps into energy in music (starting at 57:28)
So she played percussion in Return To Forever. Wow.
Airto e Flora, dois maravilhosos monstros absolutos, eu os AMO.
Greatest Brazilian c creative percussion player
Wow!
AMMAISING!!!
He was in Loosdrecht Jazz 1972 (with Weather Report) in the parking lot looking for pebbles for his rythm boxes.
We, in awe, quickly rolled a joint..
When we proposed him the smoke he said he didn't need that..
Us in awe again..
One of the best
Airto with an incredible band, Forth World, I still have their Ronnie Scott's sessions on CD.
And singing while playing these complex rhythms with all limbs! What a joy to behold as a drummer and musician. Latin percussion/rhythms are so good.
My favorite drummer and percussionist of all time .. and, turns out, one of my favorite vocalists and songwriters. Fabulous recording .. good camera work. Lucky enough to see him over many years a few times on the west coast. Also lucky enough to catch Flora w 2 mics one running thru an Echoplex, beautiful!!
Airto é gênio!!! Airto é Brasil!!

0:05 This is the single best interpretation of Perfume de Cebola I've heard! Gary Meek is such a beautiful player, he compliments Airto's playing perfectly.
This is gold
The table!! Amazing!!
não o conhecia, que musicalidade incrivel
Experienced Airto, Flora, and Hermeto in a small, small venue in Santa Fe many moons ago. Wonderful! Mil gracias por su musica.
Airto has been very succinctly described by Cannonball Adderley of having extra qualities
most Brazilians artists do have. This testimony has been brought to the fore in this extra ordinary demonstration.
Thanks for the upload....very educative.
Iam totally loving this artist,love Latin music he makes it fun.
Melhor baterista Brasileiro
Nossa! Magnifico..
Airton Moreira Made in Brazil!!!!
Airto is Boss, but Flora Purim is Legendary"""".
Flora and her incredible voice !
My introduction to Flora was "Butterfly dreams"... 'nough said )))))))
wow this is the highest inspiration, funky funky always
I love that at 50:30 Airto discovers something new about the rhythm he's playing. Such a natural player!
Jose is playing Forbes Henderson's guitar in this. We were there for the gig at Ronnie Scotts and we had a drink with them afterwards. It was fun. Fabulous percussion!
David King Really?! That's very cool :) It must have been a great night. It's a lovely looking and sounding guitar too.
The lower strings have an electronic bass reinforcement, like an octave divider. It's called a Paradis. paradis-guitars.com
So beautiful
Airto's unique voice in music and on percussion inspires.
Airto was a genius.
this was true jazz from Brasil
So many mind blowing sounds and grooves!!!!
Saw this man live Glastonbury, mind blowing, thanks so much For sharing,
Airto is the man.
I love that Percussion Table.
No wonder Mickey Hart dedicated a lot of pagers to Airto in his great book, "Drumming At The Edge of Magic" Mickey said something like Airto was like a hungry animal on stage searching & finding colors of sounds everywhere.
Not to mention that Dom Um Romao, was one of his mentors.
Só generous the way he shares his moves =)
Wow. Wow. Wow !!! I love Brasil !!
A joy to hear the rhythms of Airto
just listen to his first album with the magician hermeto pascoal from 1965 called sambrasa trio. this is 200 years ahead its time.
Another great album " seeds on the ground" check it out!
Excellent!! 👏👏👏👏
GRANDE AIRTO!!
es un genio en la percusion

The way he talks about percussion is the same way Rickson Gracie talks about Jiu Jitsu. Masters of their craft.
