Here we go on another amazing Caetano Rodrigues contribution to Loronix. This is essentially an instrumental orchestra album with a choir using voice as and instrument. Taken this introduction and the cover artwork that alone worth the admission, I would be willing to check it out. However, the choir is the legendary Coral Oito Vozes, which is Os Cariocas, plus three Severino Araujo sisters and Odaléa.This is Orquestra Pan American - Star Dust (1959), for Musidisc. Nilo Sergio - Musidisc owner - demonstrates once again that he was a little bit ahead of time, gathering Os Cariocas under the name of Orquestra Pan American to release this album. Musicians on the set are not credited but the eight voices choir worth to be listed apart, just before tracks. Tracks include:

An interested break with this album. We learn every day new things here at Loronix. In a meeting with Durval Ferreira last year we spoke about the Musidisc label and I learned in the last months how big the Musisisc catalog really is .It seems it is a never ending list. For example I never saw this album before, too.
Many thanks to the grande Caetano
Best wishes
Thanks! A million thanks. Each day is Caetano's day. And this is "my favorite thing"!
By the way, does a brasilian musician have ever recorded, in his own manner, the famous standard magnified by John Coltrane? Maybe it exists in the Musidisc catalog?
do I have to mention how great this cover is? No!
Outstanding! I love these & other American classics interpreted by Brazilian artists. Just goes to show how great these compositions were, especially in the hands of international artists. Love the wordless vocalizing also. Very groovy. My favorite cut on the LP is definitely Brigas Nunca Mais.
You & Caetano never cease to amaze. Wow!
PS Great cover too
