Moments Worth Listening For
The way the trumpet mimics Milton's falsetto on the opening of Ponta de areia, blurring the line between breath and brass.
The ten-minute expansion of Berceuse / Malilia where the woodwinds create a swirling, hypnotic bed for the vocals.
The dramatic orchestral swell halfway through Travessia that transforms the folk classic into a cinematic epic.
