Vinicius de Moraes - Vinicius | Poesia e Cancao Vol. 1 e 2 (1966)

We had wonderful posts today, the excellent Dionysio and the great surprise made by Luiz Harding showing the so far unknown personnel listing with Baden Powell, Milton Banana Trio reposting, Maestro Antonio Carlos Jobim as musical director of Para Viver um Grande Amor, based on Pobre Menina Rica play and now the great close with a double tribute album to Vinicius de Moraes, which is something that needs detailed introduction, as follows:

This is Vinicius de Moraes - Vinicius | Poesia e Cancao Vol. 1 e Vol. 2 (1966), for Forma, featuring the live recording of a tribute to Vinicius de Moraes at Teatro Municipal de Sao Paulo, December 13, 1966. This concert was a one-time event and I'm sure a once in a lifetime opportunity for those who had the chance of being there.

Vinicius de Moraes is surrounded by a constellation of artists in both volumes released by Forma, such as Carlos Lyra, Edu Lobo, Baden Powell, Ciro Monteiro, Francis Hime and Elizeth Cardoso, one of the main performers on that day, not included in this album due contractual obligations with Copacabana label. The Brazilian actors Paulo Autran and Suzana de Moraes support the event on reading Vinicius de Moraes poems.

Orquestra Sinfonica de Sao Paulo with Maestro Diogo Pacheco were in the set, delivering orchestra support throughout the set. A quartet featuring Cesar Camargo Mariano (piano), Milton Banana (drums), Azeitona (bass) and Copinha (flute) was also assembled to render this beautiful tribute to Vinicius de Moraes. Tracks include:
