This review is from: Orfeo Novo (Audio CD)

This is a very old disk, I have the original in vinyl, but if you hear the music today and listening careful, you can experience that Gismonti made a masterpiece that escape of the time, I was 13 years old when I take my copy, today I have 51 and when I need to trascent and know about the power of music in the human soul, I put this music on, all the categories of quality came to my conscius and this music never pass in time; the sound is magick, spiritual and sensual, and is part of my history since the day I listeng to this magnificent record in the first time. Gismonti never repeat this formulae, and they made several versions of these tracks, but none of then have the magick touch of these accidental moment ( the percusionist is sick the day of the record in Germany, and Gismonti decided to play the music without percusion bars), and all the crew make a professional performance that is brillant and clear of sentiment, particularly the bassist Jenny-Clark: this is music of fussion, or world music, brasilian or universal: you have plenty of time to discover, This young masterpiece have a particular influence in my life, cause I decided to play this fantastic tracs with my brother and friends in our free jazz sessions, I play clasical flute and my brother play the piano, and everybody enjoy this music, clasical people, jazz people, pop people, older people, rock and roll people, and also "salsa" people; this record have no frontier and today I keep it like a masterfull jewell in the mistery of my life.(forget my english please)
