About Me

Rossano Snel was born in Novo Hamburgo, south of Brazil, on October 16th, 1985. His connection with music started when he was six years old when he started flute’s studies. Two years later, he started to play piano. Since then beyond the musical instruments the production and the studio works also lead him to work intensively on his concepts’ and face’s compositions around his songs.

Graduated in Music – but having knowledge developed by dialogs with other musicians and producers as well as working and discovering by himself the musical language of lots of instruments – he has participated of different musical genres groups like Jazz, Rock, Brazilian Music, Reggae and Soul Music.

Rossi – as he is also known – have made contact with great names of contemporary Brazilian Music like Arismar do Espírito Santo, André Mehmari, Badi Assad e Sérgio Santos, with whom he has studied and tried to spread his musical possibilities’ horizons.

Rossano wonders music as something similar to a world with no boards. His inspiration comes from many artistic displays and because of that he is not used to subsume his own artwork. He tries to put together different elements from different parts of the culture in this way trying to find an alive and original sound. In his productions he tries to create songs that put people .. by the mix of Brazilian sonorities and electronic elements, mixed with jazz improvisations and a lot of percussion instruments.

Rossano Snel nasceu em Novo Hamburgo, no Sul do Brasil, em 16 de Outubro de 1985. Sua ligação com a música começou aos seis anos de idade, quando iniciou os estudos de flauta. Dois anos mais tarde, começou a tocar Piano. Desde então, além dos instrumentos musicais, a produção e o trabalho de estúdio também o levaram a trabalhar de forma intensa na composição dos conceitos e da cara dos seus sons.

Graduado em Música, mas com um conhecimento desenvolvido a partir do diálogo com outros músicos e produtores, bem como mexendo e descobrindo sozinho a linguagem musical de diversos instrumentos, participou de grupos de diferentes gêneros musicais, como Jazz, Rock, Música Brasileira, Reggae e Soul.

Rossi, como também é conhecido, teve contato com grandes nomes da música contemporânea brasileira como Arismar do Espírito Santo, André Mehmari, Badi Assad e Sérgio Santos, com os quais estudou e procurou ampliar o horizonte de suas possibilidades musicais.

Rossano imagina a música como sendo semelhante a um mundo sem fronteiras. Sua inspiração vem de diversas manifestações artísticas e, por isso, não costuma rotular sua obra. Apreciador das artes, busca unir elementos oriundos de diferentes partes da cultura, na tentativa de buscar um som original e vivo. Em suas produções, procura criar músicas que coloquem as pessoas em movimento através da mistura de sonoridades brasileiras e de elementos eletrônicos, mixados com improvisações jazzísticas e diversos instrumentos de percussão.
