Gaia Wilmer, Jaques Morelenbaum: Trem Das Cores

Read "Trem Das Cores" reviewed by Angelo Leonardi

by Angelo Leonardi
March 4, 2025

Il violoncellista Jaques Morelenbaum e la sassofonista Gaia Wilmer celebrano l'opera di Caetano Veloso privilegiando nove sue composizioni, eseguite quasi esclusivamente in forma strumentale, con arrangiamenti di entrambi. Solo in due temi famosi, “Trem Das Cores" e “Um Dia," c'è l'interpretazione vocale di Monica Salmaso, una delle cantanti brasiliane più in vista degli ultimi vent'anni.
