Born on November 28, 1934 in Argentina Gato Barbieri is the second master of jazz music right after the jazz king Lalo Schifrin. His real name was El Gato Barbieri. Gato Barbieri is popular not only as a jazz artist but also as a master saxophonist and composer. Barbieri's musical journey started with the great Lalo Schifrin. As a teenager Barbieri used to perform in Lalo Schifrin's band. Born to a family of musicians, Gato Barbieri began to play music just after he heard Charlie Parker's "Now's the Time." By the early 1960s, while Gato Barbieri was in Rome, he played tenor saxophone with trumpeter Don Cherry. Gato Barbieri was greatly influenced by John Coltrane's late recordings. He also got tremendous inspiration from saxophonists Pharoah Sanders and Albert Ayler. Barbieri's warm and gritty tone became the trademark of his music. In the late 1960s, he fused South American music into his playing. He went on winning a Grammy for his music score for Bernardo Bertolucci's film "Last Tango in Paris". Following his tremendous work with Bernardo Bertolucci's film, Barbieri got a record deal with the famous Impulse! Records. That was just the start. Gato Barbieri is old today. But his zest for music hasn't lessened. From time to time he performs live concerts in the country. We avail Gato Barbieri concert tickets at very attractive rates.

In his early years, Gato Barbieri used to play the traditional Latin rhythms. It was only in the 1960s he experimented with the jazz genre. His experiment with jazz became successful as he went on giving some superb jazz works in his initial efforts. In the 1970s he was deeply influenced by the South American influences and tried out his luck at pop and fusion. North American audiences first heard him when he had been a wild bull, sporting a coarse, lamenting Pharoah/John Coltrane/ Sanders-influenced tone. However, by the mid-1970s, Barbieri's tone and approach began to mellow to some extent with ballads like "What a Diff'rence a Day Makes" and Carlos Santana's "Europa." Still, regardless of the formulation in which he works, Barbieri has always been an overtly emotional tenor sax soloists.
