Gabriel

Art has been part of Gabriel’s life since he was a child. He started learning guitar and composing music at the age of fourteen. Later, he went to the university in Portugal where he had the opportunity to get in touch with different styles of European and American music. After returning to Macau, he actively composed and was particularly interested in the Macanese culture. Patuá was listed as a local intangible cultural heritage, Gabriel had the idea to promote this unique language, by singing it using different musical instruments and skills, including handpan and beatbox, to create his own unique popular indie music. He has performed before at the Lusophone and St. Joseph Festivals, Ufest and in different schools.
