Dentello lived years abroad, exhibiting his works in Europe, where always
had good receptivity. Now-a-days he lives in Brazil. Born in Bragança
Paulista (Brazil), he had formal music studies in São Paulo and
studied popular music with some of the greatest Brazilian musicians, like
Paulinho Nogueira, Ulisses Rocha and Heraldo do Monte. Furthermore, Dentello develops himself as a composer, and his artistic characteristics are revealed on his first and fourth records ("Luzes & Lendas" and "Águas"). Its arrangements combine the Brazilian roots of Dentello's art with his passion for classical music. As an independent producer, Dentello faced his own inexperience and achieved good critics from different audiences and other Brazilian guitarists. Among his artistic activities there are about 200 concerts in Europe beyond those taken place in his country. In Brazil, he performed his most important work in partnerships with other musicians: Pique Riverte (saxophone), Marcos Romera (piano), Eduardo Fleury (guitar) and Heloísa Meirelles (cello). Dentello developed good teaching methods, and applied them in lectures in Brazil, Germany and Italy. The Italian magazine Chitarre use the following words to describe Rogério Dentello's work: "for those who love the Latin-American guitar, and for those who look for a rapport between complexity and musicality, we recommend to listen to this young Brazilian guitarist and composer. Rogério Dentello, graduated in classic guitar in São Paulo and former pupil of some of the best Brazilian musicians, (...) shows a remarkable quality on composition, a mature ability to select repertory and of synthesis of different musical experiences, as well as a expert execution technique. His closeness with his instrument is that characteristic of several Brazilian guitarists thateven as professionals of outstanding technique pursue tranquility, sound purity and expressiveness rather than the tension of virtuosity. (...) It is particularly noticing the ability of Dentello to create a spontaneous and pleasant music as well he shows a straight musical culture. (...) Good attributes, therefore, for a guitarist that we certainly will hear about." Complete Curriculum in English | auf Deutsch |
