Notes

AMG Review by Alvaro Neder (4): This album brings Egberto Gismonti (mainly at his custom-made violoes, just a couple of tracks at the piano), Nando Carneiro (violao, a discrete keyboarding), and Zeca Assumpçao (double bass). The album comprises a broad dynamic range, from the peaceful, melancholic, and meditative to the aggressive, percussive, and dissonant. It brings a major difference from albums such as Dança Das Cabeças in the sense that the musical themes are delivered in a more direct manner, while Dança was more ambiguous. From the excellent music of this album, the northeastern-inspired bass solo of "Orixás" and the beautiful theme "Forrobodó" can be mentioned.
