DESCRIPTION:
08) Jamais morreremos (Vi kommer aldrig att dö) - from the album "SIMETRIA: Bo Kasper in Brazil"
Music internationalization and localization by "Eduardo and his Brazilian Aeroplane" - Bossa Jazz - http://www.brazilianaeroplane.com/
We all live against death. We all aspire. This setting of what is arguably the Bo Kaspers Orkester's greatest piece can do little more than nod in homage to the depth of their achievement. But if that nod also glances at Caetano Veloso, or if the string quartet (the "flores do maracatu") sometimes take on the figures of candomblé percussion and the role of the ialorixá in their efforts to bring down the gods -- all is done in affirmation of the continuities and symmetries which still persist between European music and its Brazilian transformation.
