A virtuoso in the trombone and accordion, Maestro Sanbone comes out of the top crop of the exciting music scene of Bahia, Brazil. He has worked as a session player for some of the country’s most prominent artists, such as Ivete Sangalo and Carlinhos Brown. Maestro Hugo Sanbone is developing his first opera based on the African-Brazilian mythology of Yemanjá, a major water spirit from the Yoruba religion.
