This is another one sent by a friend that I could not give the attention needed. This friend is not a Loronixer, so I have been postponing this LP for months. In fact, the new try I gave to it last week was born by the several wonderful orchestra LPs sent by Caetano Rodrigues in the last two months. Thanks to Caetano Rodrigues, zecalouro hears is now well trained to Orchestras.This is Jean Kelson e Sua Orquestra - Berimbau & Bigorrilho (1964), for Copacabana, really nice piece of instrumental orchestra album with a proposition to blend orchestra arrangements with two peculiar percussion instruments, berimbau and bigorrilho. Nice idea, but the outcome is something close to bossa jazz with brass with foreground, mainly trombones.
Several doubts I have about this record should be solved with personnel listing, which I have been trying to track down with no success. Tracks include:
01 - Berimbau (Baden Powell / Vinicius de Moraes)
02 - Samba de Negro (Roberto Corrêa / Sylvio Son)
03 - Catolé (Murillo Latini / Bob Nelson)
04 - Munganga (Jean Kelson / Almeida Rego)
05 - Agô Agô (Milton Castro / Glória Felipe)
06 - Vou Pra Senzala (Milton Castro / Aloísio Santana)
07 - Bigorrilho (Sebastião Gomes / Paquito / Romeu Gentil)
08 - Saci Pererê (Rildo Hora / Marcos André)
09 - Vamos Bigorrilhar (Roberto Corrêa / Sylvio Son)
10 - Dança do Bigorrilho (Astor Silva / Othon Russo)
11 - Jogado Fora (João Mello)
12 - Na Base do Bigorrilho (Alcyr Pires Vermelho / Nazareno de Brito)
