This beautiful melody was written by the Brazilian composer Osvaldo Lacerda (March 23, 1927-July 18, 2011). To me, it embodies the warmth and generosity of spirit that I found in everyone I met while visiting Brazil. The performance took place at the Festival Inverno in Vale Veneto with pianist Paolo Bergmann. -Jennifer Parker-Harley
