Saudades

by Egberto Gismonti, Nana Vasconcelos, Saudades, Mladen Gutesha, Members of the RSO Stuttgart

Overview

This 1979 recording is probably Afro-experimentalist Vasconcelos' finest. It presents his various facets -- berimbao playing, intricate overlain vocals, fine percussion, even gorgeous guitar -- simply and almost overwhelmingly. This is one of those performances that remind one to never let natural dogmatism get too out of hand. ~ John Storm Roberts
