Mbira - Ramiro Musotto

Ramiro Musotto (born in Argentina) is known for his exceptional and innovative work on the Berimbau, a single-string percussion instrument (a musical bow) which often used in Capoeira (a brazilian folk art that ritualizes movement from martial arts, games, and dance). He was influenced by Naná Vasconcelos when he was teenager. He moved to Bahia, Brazil in his early 20s to perfect his technique in playing the Berimbau.
