5.0 out of 5 stars Spectacular world jazz, December 6, 2003

The German MA label, noted for audiophile sound and compelling world jazz, here presents one of their finest releases. The vibe--relaxed sambas, flowing ballads, and dancing aboriginal pieces--always enchants. Think Egberto Gismonti circa Sol do Meio Dia meets Peter Epstein and Sam Newsome, and you've got a feeling for what's going on here--some of the most evocative and beguiling world jazz ever recorded.

Who knows why certain discs achieve wide listening, while others, equally or more deserving, such as this one, languish in the pop cultural backwaters? In any case, in this day of unknown and arcane recordings readily available from Amazon, you'd be a fool to let this one slip through your fingers.

Highest recommendation.

Among the best world jazz releases ever made with rythm mystery melody sophistication and refinement .The brazilian sound is blended here quite often with experimental and avant guard elements but also beautifully presented with a lot of harmony, expressiveness and musical depth .IN OTHER WORDS THIS RECORDING IS SOMETHING MORE THAN A RARE GEM .Rating is subjective here .
