"3) Two pieces more directly influenced by Brazilian pop music (especially from the Bahia region): 'SALVADOR' given by a trio and 'CONSOLAçÃO-BERIMBAU', the latter built on the juxtaposition of two themes by Baden Powell, composer whom Gismonti admires very much. [...]
The seven takes of this record had their difficulties in the fact that they were recorded without drums. For that reason a line for the bass and a harmonical structure for piano and guitar had to be written out, strong enough to do for the drums. Gismonti succeeded in it to a degree - and even better than he dared to hope for himself - that made him think of entirely dismissing the drums in the future. We have to add, however, that in this case he was admirably served with the great musical ability of Jean François Jenny-Clark, prize-winner of the conservatory of Paris and today France's best bassist asked for equally by the great contemporary composers (Boulez, Berio, Stockhausen) and by the most advanced and demanding jazzmen. We also have to stress the abilities of a flautist like Bernard Wystraete, winner of a first prize of Paris' conservatory, too, and we have to point ou Dulce Nunes' sensibility, fitting admirably into the genre."
