Moments Worth Listening For

The transition from the sparse acoustic opening of Dona do dom into its full, sweeping melodic resolution.

The rhythmic shift in the title track Maricotinha where the percussion takes on a playful, earthy character.

The hushed, almost whispered vocal delivery on Noite de estrelas that feels like a secret shared in the dark.
