The king of modern Brazilian pop music, Gilberto Gil tops any list of the world's most important singers, composers, and instrumentalists. He began performing more than a half-century ago and by 1968, had helped found tropicalia, the hip, literate folk-rock Brazilian hybrid musical movement that followed bossa nova, with singers Caetano Veloso, Gal Costa, and others. When his 17th album, Nightingale, was released, his first in the United States, Gil's music crossed international borders—the rest, as they say, is history. The 2006 Grammy winner comes to Zellerbach for one performance only!
