One of the first and most talented proponents of the "Vanguarda Paulista" movement (urban classically trained musicians of the city of São Paulo who added the wildest erudite experimentations to pop culture), Arrigo Barnabé is an internationally awarded composer/arranger with an expressive contribution to Brazilian music.
Mixing dissonant harmonies with creative dodecaphonic and atonal melodies with pop culture references (such as the throaty voice of the São Paulo's most popular crime radio reporter) and the strongest, heaviest Brazilian grooves, his releases had an unsurpassed energy.
