TRadition meets innovation

This set of music by the Beatles is interpreted with the sensitivity of Brasilian traditions. Perhaps an excellent introduction to traditional Brasilian styles for westerners only moderately familiar with Brasilian music. All pieces are instrumental yet I hear the voices “inside” the instruments , which are as expressive as the singers ! The orchestration will sound innovative to a western ear. The original arrangements and rhythmic patterns are respected and blended with the samba roots . All pieces acquire an additional sense “swing” which is different than american jazz swing. A wonderful retrospective , precious anthology of soft rock rendered in sweet and samba-esque fashion .
