Album Notes & Community Reviews

After a long exile in Paris, the visionary Brazilian composer and instrument builder returned home to record this staggeringly complex, multi-layered opus. 'Barracas barrocas' intricately fuses Brazilian traditional rhythms with grand orchestral sweep, third stream jazz, and his own self-designed acoustic instruments. The album is a profoundly imaginative, avant-garde masterpiece of late-twentieth-century South American music.
