00:13a pessoa que é um multi-instrumentalista.
00:17O primeiro instrumento que ele fazia, ele se fez.
00:22O outro dia, eu tentava fazer um flúho de bambu.
00:25Foi um descoito.
00:26E um cara de bambu.

00:39Juan Tomei is a very poor young man
00:41who lives in a small house near Alto Boa Vista.
00:45Blind from birth, son of poor parents,
00:47he lives there like an unfortunate prisoner.
00:52Intelligent, he dedicated himself to the difficult art of music.
00:55He plays several instruments like a true master.
00:59He composes moving songs with divinely essential lyrics.
01:03Lyrics.

01:15He did a very beautiful job.
01:18His life was always adding his knowledge to people,
01:22transmitting everything he knew
01:23to the people he knew, that he was friends with.

01:42How could a blind man
01:46like buying books so much
01:47and have so many books
01:48and have such a thirst for knowledge?
01:51That left a big mark on me.
01:53And he managed to write a history.
