Hermeto Pascoal turns frogs and kettles into jazz, exits at 89 with no regrets
Hermeto Pascoal, dead at 89, spends decades shredding the boundaries of Brazilian music by turning riverbeds, kettles and glass bottles into instruments, composing orchestral jazz while echoing frogs and church bells from his rural youth.
