I have to say I admire Angra, at least their first 2-3 albums with Andre Matos (I think...)
on the vocals. Holy Land is an absolute masterpiece of power/prog metal
I did like Sepultura before becoming ...bloody rooted

I always say that many sounds of the Middle Ages & Renaissance are still alive in the deepest parts of Brazil. I recommend you to check this folk act:

A soft voice excellent for bossa nova stuff.

The "viola" fever is so great that there are many orchestras composed only with this instruments:

This is great! Love the sound of it and the music.

Those forms of prog were also somewhat influenced by rock (whatever rock is anyway  , perhaps also measured by the type of instrumentation) what I know is that from what I heard Egberto is not exactly jazz-rock artist but more of a world fusion/latin fusion artist with some avant and symphonic tendencies, I have to listen further though, because I only heard about three albums by him only. I think that Airto could also merit being here, because he used jazz-rock formatting many times during his career, but he also is a figure in world music and world jazz.

I have my doubts, he's definitely progressive, no doubt; but we're discussing how much "rock" there is in his music to consider him a prog rock artist; at least from what I heard there's not much rock, but perhaps there are more rocky albums in his somewhat extense discography. |
....cHUS ,FOR BE A PROG IS NOT NECESSARY BE ROCK,NO ES NECESARIO QUE UNA MUSICA SEA ROCK PARA QUE SEA PROGRESIVA,for example electronic music,zeuhl,experimental etc

JG, Gismonti is being evaluated to be included in the ProgArchives!
EDIT: by the way, I'm really sure that the Club da Esquina movement led by Milton Nascimento & friends, in the 70s and 80s are "real prog". Check this:

Egberto Gismonti's early stuff is very progressive indeed. "Academia de Danças", for example (released in 1975), is genuinely progressive rock at the best!!

Nice , there's a neo-prog feeling to it, I might be wrong though
