Guitarist Sebastiao Tapajos really sounds wonderful here – playing in a spare setting, but a lively one too – thanks to work from percussionist Pedro Dos Santos, who plays a wide variety of instruments that really keep things groovy! There's a feel here that's a bit like some of Baden Powell's small combo records – kind of a post-bossa approach, with more complexity in the guitar work – and a groove that never stops being interesting – thanks to Pedro's work on tamborin, berimbau, tumbadora, and a host of other instruments too. Includes "Estudio No 1", "Despedida De Mangueira", "Encuentro Marcado", "Cantico Del Agua", "Himalaya", "
Santarem", "Sorongaio", "Solfeggeto", "Cajita De
Musica", "Munganga", "Primavera" and "Solo De Bambu". CD features bonus tracks – "Primavera/
Favela", "Samba Em Preludio/
Despedida De Mangueira", "Munganga", "Todo E Moda", and "Sorongaio".
