info 

Born in Recife, northeastern Brazil, with roots in the Amazon and Spain, Gimenes began his musical journey as a boy at a local church, singing at the children?s choir for many years. As teenager, he learned to play the guitar and the piano, while also writing his first songs. In 2005, the musician went to Denmark as an exchange student, and made his first recordings. This album presents Gimenes' personal style in a mixture of Brazilian folk, jazz, and classical music. The concept album leads listeners deep into Brazil?s mountain ranges and rainforests, telling stories of love, hardship, hope, and the Brazilian saudade. The music draws inspiration from various sources, which go from The Beatles to Leo Brouwer, passing through major Brazilian artists, such as Milton Nascimento, Egberto Gismonti, and Dori Caymmi. Subtle and elegant.
