A masterpiece of an album by the Brazilian genius Egberto Gismonti, released in 1982. A spiral of synthesized electronic sounds and organic acoustic sounds, it's an epic fantasy. The synth solo in A2 is just too much, but B4, which is also featured on the ECM album, is a fusion of electronics and acoustic. Gismonti, who showed an early interest in synthesizers, has never compromised his musicianship and uses electronics completely as a tool of expression, for which we have the utmost respect. There is no one like him in the whole world. Original Brazilian pressing.
