Nelson Pinton

Nelson Pinton is a Brazilian pianist, composer and experimental musician whose practice connects improvisation with electroacoustic music, electronics and audiovisual work. His artistic interests include sound sculpture, digital processing and music for visual media.

He studied at UNICAMP in Brazil and has worked with electronic and acoustic instruments in different performance contexts. Creative Sources documents his piano playing within the label's international experimental-music catalogue, reflecting an approach in which conventional keyboard technique can meet sound processing and open forms. His wider projects have also explored the relationship between composed material, spontaneous sound and visual expression.
