Last year, reading Moacir Santos's scores directly from his songbook, I was surprised how perfectly it fit the 7-string guitar, in the original key, as if the music was composed for the instrument.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eI spent a year working on that repertoire and when Anat visited Brazil, I proposed that we get together so I could show her the arrangements I’d been working on. The clarinet was Moacir’s first instrument. If his compositions sounded so beautiful on the guitar, I could only imagine how special they would sound played by Anat on the clarinet. Anat proposed meeting directly at a recording studio and so we did. When we started playing, Anat, who has known me for many years, said: “I have never seen you so happy!” I responded: “I’ve never been!” This recording documents those two happy days in the studio.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eI hope you enjoy listening to this music as much as we enjoyed playing it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMarcello Gonçalves, July 2016\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Anzic Records","offers":[{"title":"LP","offer_id":49136157851956,"sku":"ANZ-0055-01","price":35.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"CD","offer_id":49136157884724,"sku":"ANZ-0055-02","price":20.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"WAV Download","offer_id":49136157917492,"sku":"ANZ-0055-05","price":15.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"MP3 Download","offer_id":49136157950260,"sku":"ANZ-0055-03","price":10.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0859\/7874\/3092\/files\/20c412b2-2d13-4d56-b1e9-000ebf70d038.jpg?v=1779575449","url":"https:\/\/anzicrecords.com\/products\/outra-coisa-the-music-of-moacir-santos","provider":"Anzic Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
