Ebhino Cardoso

Ebinho Cardoso is a virtuoso on his instrument. Due to the uniqueness of his music and technique, he is one of the most respected Brazilian bassists. Composer, arranger, singer and producer, Ebinho uses atypical elements of the electric bass, showing its range of possibilities. In addition to playing the bass as an accompanying instrument or as a solo instrument, he has found a unique way of playing chords on the bass that characterize his playing style; a style that combines precision and refinement. In part, he is able to achieve his sound by tuning his instrument in new ways and at higher pitches. His music blends traces of jazz with the idiosyncrasies of classical music interwoven with the rich sounds of his native Brazil.

The result is his several years of study is his book, "Harmony and Chord Dictionary as Applied to the Electric Bass".

With several CDs and instructional DVDs Ebinho is now finishing the CD "Engenheiros" with pianist Nando Michelin, using poems by Brazilian laureate poet Jo o Cabral de Melo Neto. The article entitled "The Promising Newcomers of the Brazilian Bass (Revista Cover Baixo (Bass Cover Magazine) - February 2010) said: Ebinho Cardoso can redefine the course of the bass in music world wide . With Ebinho's work over the past several years, we have already seen this prophecy in the making.
