O poeta e o violão

Toquinho

Just a man and his guitar. These fourteen tracks are the sonic equivalent of a quiet conversation in a sunlit room, recorded with startling, unadorned intimacy.

1975

A quiet, sun-drenched meditation that feels like a private conversation between a master and his instrument.

Moments Worth Listening For
The audible breath before the first line of Chega de saudade, making the listener feel inches away from the microphone.
The rhythmic precision of the guitar during the Berimbau medley, where the wood of the instrument becomes the percussion section.
The startling vulnerability of the Nature Boy cover, stripped of its usual orchestral grandeur for a lonely guitar arrangement.
Where This Album DepartsEach spoke is a trait. The orange shape shows where this album pulls away from — or holds to — the rest of the artist’s catalogue. Tap for more.
