EGBERTO GISMONTI Toronto 1990

Egberto Gismonti was born in Carmo, a small north of Rio de Janeiro, in 1947 to Sicilian and Lebanese parents. He taught himself to play guitar after studying music in Paris with Nadia Boulanger, designing guitars with more than six strings to expand the range of the instrument and create the sound of more than one musician playing. He made his first record for the Elenco, the legendary Brazilian record label, in 1969, but it’s his work with the German label ECM that’s made his name around the world, starting with a recording with Nana Vasconcelos, Dança das Cabeças, in 1977.

I photographed Egberto Gismonti when he came to Toronto and shared a bill with fellow Brazilian Hermeto Pascoal. He was promoting either Dança dos Escravos or Presents a Musical Childhood with Infância – probably the former, a solo guitar record on ECM. The concert would have been a study in contrasts – Pascoal’s raucous big band using everything at hand versus Gismonti’s comparatively austere guitar playing. I honestly wish I’d taken pics of the concert, but I was already getting tired of concert photography and, to be honest, more interested in actually seeing shows than documenting them.

My memory is that I did my portraits of Egberto Gismonti either in his own dressing room or away from the chaos of Hermeto Pascoal and his band backstage at the midtown club where they were sharing a double bill. I was working light, with just my Nikon F3 and some fast Kodak black and white film. In situations like this I would default to the first photographic style I studied – the work of photographers in the British music weeklies in the ‘80s – and I think it shows. I was shooting with my lens wide open, and probably no more than a couple of feet with my subject – a working method I’ll still use today when I need to (forcibly) create a sense of intimacy in a shoot.

Autoretrato.

Soledad, proceso creativo.

Cámara, vestuario y maquillaje por 𝖆𝖐𝖆𝖍𝖎.

A veces, logramos objetivos, a veces no. No sé cómo me siento al respecto. Me gusta la intencionalidad de la falta de maquillaje, pero me hace sentir incómoda respecto a mi cuerpo.

My father's collaboration with Brazillian guitarist Egberto Gismonti began in 1980. In Montreal (2001, ECM) documents a live performance the duo played in 1989. Here's their version of Charlie's tune "Silence".
