A collaboration between Italian singer Ornella Vanoni and Brazilian artists Vinicius de Moraes (poet/lyricist) and Toquinho (guitarist/singer), known for blending bossa nova and Italian interpretations on a 1976 album produced by Sergio Bardotti.

The project gathered Vanoni, Vinicius de Moraes and Toquinho in Rome in 1976; Sergio Bardotti translated and produced Italian versions of Brazilian songs. According to the reviews, the three recorded thirteen tracks in eight days with live takes, later adding strings and choir overdubs; Vinicius de Moraes contributes poems/recitations on the LP's second side.

A 1976 collaboration that brings Brazilian bossa nova into Italian via Sergio Bardotti's translations. Ornella Vanoni adapts her voice to Vinicius de Moraes' melancholic repertoire while Toquinho provides masterful guitar and vocal support. The album was recorded live in short sessions with later overdubs. Critics praised Vanoni's mature, emotive interpretation.

For:Fans of bossa nova, Brazilian music, Italian vocalists, 1970s recordings and vintage collaborations

 Ornella is still herself, the same as ever, but different, greater, more mature, more complete.
