Images On Guitar
Baden Powell was one of Brazil's greatest guitarists, a virtuoso known for pioneering the fusion of classical technique with Brazilian music. This 2016 MPS Records release pairs him with vocalist Janine, creating a beautiful dialogue between his intricate picking and her warm, expressive voice. The album features interpretations of Brazilian standards and originals in the MPB tradition, with occasional Latin jazz flourishes. 'Conversação Comigo Mesmo' stands out as a seven-minute meditation on Powell's abilities as a soloist. The guitar work is technically stunning yet emotionally restrained, never overshadowing Janine's intimate vocal delivery. For lovers of Brazilian music and masterful acoustic guitar, this showcases the sophistication and beauty of MPB at its finest.
