AN APPRENTICE
A self-taught guitar player, Torquatto started foolin around on a Brazilian Acoustic steel strings guitar at age 11, as there was always one around the house. His older brother played electric guitar in a group called Scalla 90 in Santos,São Paulo,and Torquatto used to go to every gig to watch them play, paying attention to his brother fingers and later trying to emulate those chords at home. His admiration for music grew fast as years passed and he started listening over and over and over to The Beatles as Jimi Hendrix that time as well .
Soon, Torquatto was able to identify the chords played on those records and able to play them on the guitar.
Learning guitar by ear (like most Brazilian do) gave Torquatto the flexibility and freedom to choose the music and the way he wanted to play, as opposed to the methods imposed by the local music conservatory, allowing him to embark on a journey of discovery and great satisfaction. He was hooked on listening and trying to play it on the guitar. At the age of 15 years old, Torquatto was already part of his (middle) schoo electric/rock'n blues group and started appearing on local Festivals, theaters and the school fairs. I am a eternal apprentice!
With my best wishes for Peace Profound!
