I have a strong respect and admiration for Dorival Caymmi. Brazilian artists such as Joao Gilberto and Caetano Veloso also consider Caymmi the "root" of the great music we know here at Loronix. I cannot understand why Dorival Caymmi is not celebrated in Brazil and also worldwide as his peers, his sophisticated harmonies, and the way he fit lyrics with melodies with his guitar playing is unique.Loronix has just a few Dorival Caymmi releases and I think it is time to fill this gap. This is Dorival Caymmi - Caymmi e o Mar (1957), for Odeon, with a different track 01, Historia de Pescadores with Dorival Caymmi, Silvinha Telles, Lenita Bruno, Odaléa Sodré Fernandes and Consuelo Sierra singing together several songs like a story. Caymmi e o Mar has orchestra arrangements by the Maestro Leo Peracchi e Sua Orquestra. Tracks include:
01 - "História de Pescadores" with Canção da Partida (Dorival Caymmi) -- Adeus da Esposa (Dorival Caymmi) -- Temporal (Dorival Caymmi) -- Cantiga de Noiva (Dorival Caymmi) -- Velório Val (Dorival Caymmi) -- Na Manhã Seguinte (Dorival Caymmi)
