Vinicius de Moraes - Vinicius de Moraes (1959)

Hello, Happy New Year! I want to open this year with something different and also unique. It is not music, but poetry, written and spoken by one of the greatest Brazilian artists from the last century, Vinicius de Moraes. According with Sombras, this little EP was released in 1959; I could not find this information inspecting the cover, as well the record label. Anyway, this is one of the first albums recorded by Vinicius de Moraes as main performer. Let's see.

This is Vinicius de Moraes - Vinicius de Moraes (1959), for Festa, featuring poetry written and spoken by Vinicius de Moraes. As a second warning, this is not music, but poetry in Portuguese language. I'm not versed on poetry, but these five tracks and Vinicius de Moraes interpretation of his work are delicious to hear. Tracks include, sorry, poems are:

01 - O Mergulhador (Vinicius de Moraes)
02 - Soneto Nr. 2 - De Meditacao (Vinicius de Moraes)
03 - Os Acrobatas (Vinicius de Moraes)
04 - A Hora Intima (Vinicius de Moraes)
05 - Receita de Mulher (Vinicius de Moraes)

    Espero que você tenha outros vinis dentre a centena do selo Festa Poesia.

    Um muito procurado e raro é o do Murilo Mendes...
