Notes
Published by Editions Gismonti, SUISA.
The music on this album is dedicated to Sapain and Xingu Indians, whose teachings were so important to me during the time I spent with them in the Amazon jungle, its color and mysteries; the sun, the moon, the rain and the winds, the river and the fish, the sky and the birds, but most of all the integration of musician, music and instrument into an undivided whole.
Recorded November 1977 at Talent Studio, Oslo

Gismonti has been amazingly prolific in making many great albums from early 70's up to mid 90's. Typically, his music is somewhat "rough" but very powerfull, emotive, rich, risky and bold during all the 70's. It is mostly acoustic work with many Gismonti's vocals too. It is a little difficult to access because of the complexity; but once you are in, it will stay with you forever. Most of this earlier work is under EMI or lately reissued under Gimsonti's CARMO labels.
The 80's are a transition period from pure acoustic to a mix between acoustic and electric instruments; Gismonti's vocals tend to disapear. Typically, the music becomes less provocative and more polite than earlier Gismonti's work. It is somewhat more civilized and more easy to access. Yet, the music remains highly sophisticated and creative; but with little less (good or bad?) surprise. Lots of these albums are under ECM label.
The 90's are a period where Gismonti's Group was founded. The music move towards more classical style: very polite, distinctive, fluid and elegant. Yet, there is still this amazing creativity, complexity and freshness of all Gismonti's works.
A few movie music albums are part of this period too (Kuarup, Amazonia). They tend to have more electronic effects but they stay into the elegant distinctive spirit of Gismonti's group latest compositions. Most of these albums are under ECM or CARMO labels.
About SOL DO MEIO DIA album, it is in the same spirit as DANCA DAS CABECAS album (check my other review). It is another really nice transition between earlier 70's albums and later 80's albums, retaining the best of the two styles. The melodies feature a lot of beuatiful sounds from Amazonia forest and in addition , this album has several beautiful vocals (that we may miss a little sometimes into the later purely instrumental albums). Although similar, this album is quiter, with not as much rage as DANCA DAS CABECAS. But in both cases, the melodies are very strong and very spirited: Gismonti may not know who he is, but he knows where he goes…progarchives.com
