Renato Borghetti

Renato Borghetti, affectionately known as "Borghettinho," is a legendary Brazilian accordionist and composer who’s become a cultural icon of Rio Grande do Sul’s traditional *música gaúcha*. Born in 1963 in Porto Alegre, he’s spent decades blending the soulful sounds of the *gaita-ponto* (diatonic accordion) with jazz, choro, and folk influences, giving fresh energy to Southern Brazil’s musical roots. His lively performances and collaborations—like teaming up with guitar virtuosos Yamandu Costa or Nelson Faria—showcase his knack for balancing tradition and innovation. Albums like *Terra de Heróis* and *Sou Gaúcho* celebrate his deep connection to gaucho culture, while projects like *Future Memory* hint at his playful experimentation. A true ambassador of Brazilian folk, Borghetti’s music feels like a warm embrace from the pampas.
