The Brazilian musician, composer and producer opens his album with the sumptuously combination of the elegant Igarapé (Caminho de Canoa) and the all-embracing rhythms within River Stream (Way of the Canoe), and then we get the demure finesse of Valsa do Tempo Parado / Static Time Waltz, the smooth Vila Rica, the harmonically melodious Born Balaio / Hamper Box and the lightly grooved Luz Da Lua / Light of the Moon.

Along next is the late night embrace of Chorando de Rir / Laughing ’Till It Hurts and the dulcet Nem Tempo New Distância / Neither Time Nor Distance and they are in turn backed by the guitar-driven De Duas, Uma / One Out of Two, the graceful Aquele Mar / The Sea Over There, the set coming to a close on the opulently lithe Vou Mas Fico / Gone But Still Here.
