Milton Bituca Nascimento (2025)

Together with the Amsterdam music platform Steppin' Into Tomorrow we join the farewell tour of Milton Nascimento, one of the greatest Brazilian artists of all times. With images captured in Lisbon, Venice, London, Los Angeles, New York, Ouro Preto, Belo Horizonte and Rio de Janeiro, and testimonies from great artists such as Quincy Jones, Wayne Shorter, Herbie Hancock, Paul Simon, Spike Lee, Caetano Veloso, Gilberto Gil, Chico Buarque, João Bosco, Mano Brown, Tim Bernardes and the members of the 'Clube da Esquina', Flávia Moraes' film shows Milton's global dimension, captures the emotion he provokes on his fans, explores the strong spiritual charge of his work, and investigates the origins of his musicality in the bowels of deep Brazil. Before and after the screening there is a DJ set by Palos Santo Discos.

Melkweg often hosts different types of programmes at the same time, such as concerts, club nights and films. Please note that there may occasionally be some noise pollution from other programmes during the screening.
