ATTO Music & Instruments

Live

Modern classics on 7 strings in Central Florida.

Roberto is a working guitarist who plays a seven-string nylon guitar, and he shapes every set around the room he's in: Latin phrasing, jazz harmony, contemporary interpretations of songs people know, and looping built live in front of the audience.

What the set is built from

Good music is the priority of a good performance.

  • Seven-string nylon

    The extra low string lets one player cover bass movement, harmony, and melody at the same time — no backing track needed to fill a room.

  • Latin & jazz phrasing

    Standards and modern classics get rearranged around Latin rhythm and jazz harmony, so familiar songs come out sounding fresh rather than played straight off the page.

  • Live looping

    Parts are layered in real time right in front of the audience, so each arrangement grows as the song goes on instead of arriving pre-recorded.
