about

Absorbed in the art, music and poetry of the great Dorival Caymmi, Bruno went to the studio with the lyrics, melody, arrangement and instrumentation for this song already worked out in his head. The image of the sunset in Itapoã combined with capoeira and a beautiful woman walking in the sand on the beach, was what Bruno sought to establish in the minds of this song’s listeners. This wasn’t all quite clear yet to Geo when he made his first attempt to record the song’s acoustic guitar part. “No, Geo, it’s got to be played just the way I showed you, with the pauses just like that, sounding like a berimbau.” After Geo had completed the basic track and Eduardo Lyra’s berimbau had been added, it was time for Bruno’s vocal. Geo turned off the lights in the studio, only leaving one on Bruno, so that the latter couldn’t see anyone. In an introspective mood and with his eyes closed, Bruno recorded his vocal on “Itapoã” in just one take. The volume variations in his voice when he moves his head back from the mic are audible, but Geo decided against doing any overdubs and to leave it as it is. This only added a genuine authenticity to the overall effect of the song.
