More Details

Summary:

"The soundtrack to a ballet which dealt with the legacy of slavery in Brazil. Featuring legendary Brazilian musicians Naná Vasconcelos, João Donato, Paulinho Jobim and members from Milton's Som Imaginário band, the music is raw, atmospheric and emotionally charged. Maria Maria reveals one of Brazil's greatest ever songwriters and most important artists at his creative peak." -- disc container
