Internationally acclaimed guitarist Leandro Pellegrino will perform as a guest artist of the Setnor School of Music’s jazz and commercial music division. Pellegrino’s performance will feature Setnor faculty member Marianne Solivan, bassist Steve Wood, and drummer Jay Sawyer.

Pellegrino has been steadily developing his reputation as one of the finest guitarists of his generation. Born in São Paulo, Brazil, he studied music composition and jazz improvisations during his teenage years. After earning his bachelor’s degree, he auditioned for the prestigious Berklee College of Music and was awarded a full-ride scholarship to pursue his studies in jazz and improvised music.

In the fall of 2011, Pellegrino moved to the U.S to live his dream of being immersed in the country’s fertile musical environment. Since then he has gained an impressive reputation among his peers and had the chance to work with many of the greatest jazz musicians on the scene. He has already performed with Dave Liebman, Danilo Perez, Manu Katché, John Pattittuci, Bob Cranshaw, Terri Lyne Carrington, Romero Lubambo, Eric Harland, Donny McCaslin, Gerald Clayton, Erik Truffaz, among others. He is also part of the Grammy Award-winning album “Beautiful Life” by the exceptional jazz singer Dianne Reeves.
