SOLO JAZZ GUITAR

Playing the style Solo Jazz Guitar is an art very special that was being developed by the time and with the necessity to find an own expression. Several guitar players have used this solo format in their expression. Names like Joe Pass, Barney Kessel, Hélio Delmiro e Martin Taylor are references for the new generation of jazz guitar players.

During his solo recital, Julio Herrlein presents a soundness that almost reaches the pure sound, acoustic, without the use of effects usually related to the guitar (distortion), producing a traditional jazz sound, but with technical innovations.
