Hermeto Pascoal (06/22/39 - 09/13/25) Virtuoso pianist, accordionist and flautist, who found music everywhere: kettles, squeaky toys, his beard, napkins, carpets, chairs, pints of beer, kitchen utensils, live animals. A pig sets the vibe on ‘Missa Dos Escravos’ (1977s Slaves Mass)
Hermeto Pascoal wears a blue shirt and is seated at a keyboard or piano (I think). He has long, voluminous white hair and a full beard, wearing dark sunglasses. He looks cool as fuck.

The right side contrasts with a section of dark, arch-like forms above abstract architectural shapes in beige and blue.
