Fernando Gallo, Seu Piano e Sua Orquestra - Musica, Brasil (1981)

Hello, Good Evening! I want to start this Wednesday in the same spirit we finished yesterday, showing another album sponsored and recorded for a given company, which is Banco do Brasil, a major Brazilian financial institution. In spite of the great music we have here, this cover alone worth the admission price. Let's see.

This is Fernando Gallo, Seu Piano e Sua Orquestra - Musica, Brasil (1981), for Banco do Brasil, arranged, directed and coordinated by Maestro Fernando Gallo. Actually, Fernando Gallo discography shows three albums, all recordings for Banco do Brasil. The repertoire features Brazilian standards, performed by top-notch musicians. This is a really nice orchestra album recorded with modern technology by really experienced musicians. Tracks include:
