Itibere Zwarg—who met Helmete Pascoal in the 1970s, joined his GRUPO, and is credited as its creative force—formed the group ITIBERÊ ORQUESTRA FAMÍLIA in 2001. A vinyl LP, featuring carefully selected tracks from their original two-disc CD set, has been released. The LP includes a download code. It unfolds a paradisiacal soundscape blending candombe, forró, African, Andean, and Amazonian influences. The miraculous “Ao Pé Da Lareira” (sample 1). (Original Japanese text by Saito)
