   About Ted and Pablo
Ted & Pablo---Transcontinental Music Express
Resultado da parceria entre os músicos Ted Falcon e Pablo Fagundes, o CD “Ted and Pablo – Transcontinental Music Express” alcança o objetivo que tantos artistas procuram. Tanto no CD como no show, a combinação entre estilos musicais do Brasil e dos Estados Unidos flui com grande naturalidade, e podemos ouvir desde a música acústica brasileira (como choro, samba e forró) à música de raiz americana (blues, jazz e rock) em uma seqüência envolvente.
O CD Transcontinental Music Express, gravado no Brasil, traz desde composições próprias até nomes que são referências para ambos os países – por exemplo, Ernesto Nazareth e David Grisman. A impressionante qualidade da execução deve-se também ao fato de que os dois artistas se dedicam ao estudo desses estilos há bastante tempo.

Ted Falcon, americano, descobriu a paixão pela música brasileira ao ouvir choro em casa, quando seu pai, violonista, tocava peças de Villa-Lobos e de outros grandes nomes da música brasileira. Dedicou-se a estudar bandolim brasileiro e choro nos últimos sete anos (tendo sua formação inicial voltada para o jazz), chegando a gravar o CD instrumental Memórias do Brasil e a escrever um livro para estudantes de bandolim, Retratos do Brasil. Ted ainda inova ao tocar esse estilo com violino, seu primeiro instrumento, pouco utilizado na música popular brasileira. Em diversas viagens ao Brasil, Ted tocou ao lado de grandes nomes da música brasileira, como Armandinho Macedo, Gilberto Gil e Época de Ouro. Nos Estados Unidos, Ted já tocou com David Grisman e Mike Marshall, e gravou com Ben E. King e Suzanne Vega.

Por sua vez, Pablo Fagundes, brasileiro, apaixonou-se pelo blues, estilo americano que tem muitos adeptos no Brasil, e hoje trabalha pela consolidação do seu instrumento, a gaita, na música brasileira, desenvolvendo pesquisas e dando aulas na Escola de Choro Raphael Rabello (em Brasília). Além de fazer parte das bandas Pé de Cerrado e Quarteto Camará, e de tocar com grandes instrumentistas brasileiros, Pablo participou da abertura do show de BB King com a Brazilian All Stars Blues Band, e recentemente, no Simpósio de Bandolins, na Califórnia, tocou com David Grisman e Mike Marshall.

Em maio de 2007 a dupla concluiu a gravação de “Transcontinental Music Express”, no Brasil, e em julho começaram a divulgá-lo nos Estados Unidos, participando de Convenções de bandolinistas e gaitistas e tocando em diversas cidades do país, principalmente em Los Angeles e outras partes do Estado da Califórnia. No Brasil, o lançamento começa por Brasília e em breve os artistas viajarão por outras cidades do país com o show que impressiona a todo tipo de público pelo equilíbrio em sua diversidade.


Mandolinist/Violinist Ted Falcon hooks up with harmonica virtuoso Pablo Fagundes in a program of Brazilian and American music.
The new CD, Ted & Pablo—Transcontinental Music Express, recorded in Brazil, includes many original compositions as well as references to the great composers of both countries such as Ernesto Nazareth and David Grisman. .

Ted Falcon, an American, first discovered his passion for Brazilian music when he heard choro at home listening to his father playing the guitar music of Villa-Lobos. He has dedicated himself to the study of the mandolin and choro for the past 7 years, recording a Brazilian instrumental CD, Memórias do Brasil, and writing a mandolin book, Retratos do Brasil. He is also one of the few innovators on the violin, an instrument rarely used in Brazilian popular music. In many different trips to Brazil, Ted has performed with some of the biggest names of Brazilian music, including Armandinho, Gilberto Gil and Época de Ouro. In the U.S., Ted has played with David Grisman and Mike Marshall, and has recorded with Ben E. King and Suzanne Vega.

For his part, Pablo Fagundes, a Brazilian, fell in love with the blues, an American style that has many fans in Brazil. Today he works to consolidate his instrument, the harmonica, in Brazilian music, developing research and giving lessons in the Escola de Choro Raphael Rabello in Brasilia. In Brazil, Pablo performs with Pé de Cerrado, a group dedicated to various styles of Brazilian regional music, as well as with the Quarteto Camará, a group that explores Brazilian music, jazz and blues. He has also played with the Brazilian All Stars Blues band, opening for B.B. King, and recently at the Mandolin Symposium in California, played with David Grisman and Mike Marshall.

The August show at LACMA was fabulous. It was joyous music the general audience could enjoy and astoundingly impressive to musicians. Highly entertaining and elegant to minimize the bass to the 7 string guitar, which was played superbly, and the percussion (tamborine +) I loved it. I am not a chorro expert but I know something about bossa having seen Oscar C Neves twice and Dori Caymmi.
