IN MEMORIAM IT IS WITH VERY HEAVY HEARTS THAT WE HONOR THE PASSING OF BOA VOZ
His legacy will live on forever...
Sebastião Pelegrini de LJ Mattos, known in the world of capoeira and music as Boa Voz, was born on September 25, 1959, in the city of Petrópolis, Rio de Janeiro. Son of Leonídio de Mattos and Judith Pelegrini de Matos.
He began his career in capoeira in 1979, after leaving the military service. His first contact was with the Capoeira group Porto Seguro, in Petrópolis. He began to follow the work of Mestre Camisa in 1984. In 1986, he joined ABADÁ-Capoeira and dedicated his life to the music and rhythm of capoeira, recording many albums and teaching classes and courses throughout Brazil and the world.
As you read this, someone right now is playing and singing to his music. We will miss you, Boa Voz!
