Sambrasa Trio is Hermeto Pascoal (piano and flute), Humberto Clayber (bass and harmonica) and Airto Moreira (drums). The group started to play in 1965, recording only one, though seminal record in the same year, "Em Som Maior". A fundamental masterpiece and perfect example and influence of the so-called brazilian jazz, "Em Som Maior" is created among explosive grooves squeezing the virtuosis out of their instruments, all gathered and mixed with avantgarde recreations of traditional brazilian themes and bossa nova songs together with blistering, neat samba-jazz.
