From the recording DIÁLOGOS DUO / Homages to Brazilian Masters
A spirited baião dedicated to the prolific Brazilian music genius Hermeto Pascoal. In Brazil's northeast, the "desafio" is an exciting challenge between two rhyming vocalist-poets who play the pandeiro as rhythmic accompaniment. The guitar uses the alternate tuning D-G in the lower two strings. The final piece in the clarinet-guitar Diálogos cycle.
