Hello, good evening! I’m not a big fan of piano solo albums; they use to be very complex, requiring a lot of concentration until you understand everything. I’m not taking in consideration this is a piano solo album played by one of the greatest Brazilian musicians ever. If I took it for a spin without knowing this is Radames Gnattali, I would be also really impressed about this music.

I know we had previous piano solo albums played by Radames Gnattali, but what makes the difference here is the repertoire, full of tunes that we know by heart, making easy to understand Radames Gnattali improvisation at a first hearing.

I would like to say thank you to Jorge Mello, for another fantastic contribution to Loronix.

Let’s see.

This is Radames Gnattali – Radames Gnattali (1984), for Libertas, recorded live at Sala Cecilia Meirelles, Rio de Janeiro, December 1984. I can’t remember what I was doing on December 1984, but if I could travel back to the past, I would like to be at this concert. Front cover is also worth checking out with a Radames Gnattali drawing made by the unique style of Nassara. The back cover also includes a handwriting message by Antonio Carlos Jobim, inviting Radames Gnattali to drink a “chope” with “amendoim”.



Tracks include:

01 – Carinhoso (Pixinguinha / João de Barro)
02 – Ponteio (Edu Lobo / Capinan)
03 – Preciso Aprender a Ser Só (Marcos Valle / Paulo Sergio Valle)
04 – Corcovado (Tom Jobim)
05 – Chovendo na Roseira (Tom Jobim)
06 – Manhã de Carnaval (Luis Bonfá / Antônio Maria)
07 – Cochicho (Pixinguinha)
08 – Do Lago à Cachoeira (Sergio Ricardo)
09 – Nova Ilusão (José Menezes / Luis Bittencourt)

Thank you for posting this extreme preciosity, Zeca Louro. I hope you post more piano solo albums, and that you discover in them the universe that unfolds through a single instrument.
