Bio:

---

Its been 13 years now since Heitor Mazzotti hit the road as a professional lead guitarist. Mazzotti boasts an impressive career in the rock scene. His experience goes from accompanying great singers in tours, playing with several rock and jazz bands in night clubs and elaborate partnerships in concerts and recordings with great musicians as Ricky Furlani, Wander Taffo and Alaor Neves. Now he comes up with the new album Kosmo Dimensio. One of the most tight and technically gifted guitar players in contemporary brazilian rock, Mazzotti adds up to a staggering mastery of scales, modes and chord progression, the hot emotional metrics of his playing. An outstanding feature of Mazzottis work is the charity concert The Instruments Speak Up. Led by Mazzotti, this important social work has been an occasion for the presentation of new experiments in instrumental rock music and the appearance of scores of local rock performers. It has taken place since 1999 and overall has contributed to the collection of more than 2.5 tonnes of food supplies destined to poor people in Piracicaba ( SP / Brazil ).

Musical Background

Piracicaba, were Mazzotti was born and has lived in, is the worlds mecca of sugar cane production and processing. Thanks to the wealth sugar and ethanol provide, Piracicaba is proud of its intense cultural life and excellent music schools. Mazzotti took full advantage of that rich environment, starting his musical studies at the age of eight. Always a brilliant classical and rock guitar student, Mazzotti has acquired not only amazing dexterity but also a deep knoledge over classical music, there included, notation, tempo, harmony, all that allows him to write his own music as much as perform written stuff from great sources among wich Joe Satriani, Steve Vai and Dream Theater. A graduate mechanical engineer, Mazzotti abandoned an almost complete master degree in agricultural machinery to dedicate himself to music in 2002. Since then he combines actvities in music research and performance with the task of teaching: he runs his own music school, Tempo 1, where he and other highly skilled professionals teach guitar as well as bass, singing, drums, violin and much more.
