EUMIR DEODATO - LOS DANSEROS EN BOLERO

EUMIR DEODATO - LOS DANSEROS EN BOLERO
Este esplêndido álbum de boleros, gravado por Eumir Deodato sob o título de LOS DANSEROS, teve uma outra edição, pela gravadora Castelinho, intitulada ORQUESTRA DON CAMACHO. Nesta época Eumir Deodato ainda não tinha um estilo próprio e, como todos os arranjadores mais jovens, havia acabado de dissecar o livro de Henry Mancini "SOUNDS & SCORES", bíblia da geração pós bossa-nova. O som é puro Henry Mancini, adornando um repertório maravilhoso que mescla "standards", boleros tradicionais, música francesa e italiana, músicas de filmes, as últimas do Mancini, etc. É um grande álbum do mestre Eumir Deodato.

(*) Não tive tempo de traduzir a entrevista do Eumir, no qual fala sobre este álbum.
No big deal - todo mundo aqui no blog é "troglodita", OOPS - POLIGLOTA [:-)

EXCERPT FROM AN INTERVIEW WITH EUMIR DEODATO

* 1964 was a very prolific year for you. From your first album "Inútil Paisagem" where you mainly performed and rearranged classic pieces by Tom Jobim and Vinicius de Moraes up to "Idéias" where apart from the songs of Marcos Valle and other composers, we started to hear some of your own compositions. How did you go about choosing the tracks for your LP´s?

ED:Usually together with the record company and some of the writers of the songs involved.

* Again in 1964 with "Impulso" and "Tremendão", you begin a chapter which is very dear to me: Os Catedráticos, the use of the organ and a turning point for Bossa Nova, for me ...Tell me about this project and of the contribution that the organ gave to create tha sound that today is known as Lounge.

ED:This started with my collaboration with a small Brazilian label called Equipe. I did an album for them called "Los Danseros In Bolero" since boleros were still very popular in Brazil. It had an instant success which was then followed by Os Catedráticos which was originally intended as a dance group playing mostly samba and slow dancing pieces.

* Roberto Menescal, Paulo Moura,Wilson das Neves, Maurílio Santos, Rubens Bassini, Dom Um Romão, Airto, Bebeto remember are a few of musicians you have played with. What kind of relationship did you have with these great musicians considering that you were all very young and full of ideas?

ED:These were mostly studio musicians at that time and also the best ones you could find then.

EUMIR DEODATO - LOS DANSEROS IN BOLERO
This is an splendorous album whose arrangements were penned by the great Brazilian arranger EUMIR DEODATO, under a "nickname". At that time Mr. Deodato, just like so many young Brazilian arrangers, were deeply impressed and influenced by Henry Mancini´s compositions and arrangements. As a matter of fact, in those years, Hank´s arrangements were blueprinted, worldwide. Later, as we know, EUMIR DEODATO developped his own gorgeous arranging style. Don´t miss it.

MINHA OPINIÃO: WOW! Que salada saborosa! Os ingridientes são variados:Kurt Weill, Henry Mancini, Henri Salvador, Cole Porter, João Gilberto, Peppino di Capri, Gilbert Becaud, Jerome Kern, Gilbert Becaud, etc. Tudo misturado, com tempero "Manciniano" adicionado pelo "cook" Eumir Deodato. IMPERDÍVEL.
