Geraes

Released in 1976, Milton Nascimento's 'Geraes' serves as a thematic companion to his prior album 'Minas', shifting from an urban soundscape to a more rural, acoustic focus. The album integrates the folk traditions of Minas Gerais with broader pan-Latin American sounds, utilizing instruments like the charango and viola caipira alongside orchestral arrangements to create a rich, pastoral atmosphere. It is also distinguished by its collaborative spirit, featuring prominent guest artists such as Mercedes Sosa on "Volver a los 17" and Chico Buarque on "O Que Será (À Flor da Pele)."
