Reviewed 2011-12-03
Portuguese solo acoustic guitarist presents a variety of simple but nicely played instrumental compositions. Quite peaceful and relaxing overall, with a few scattered upbeat moments. FCC clean.

1. Slow. Relaxing, pensive guitar melody.
*2. Mid/up. More intricate with a fast pace and happy tone.
*3. Mid. Light, airy sunny afternoon style.
4. Mid. Rhythmic and bright.
5. Mid/slow. Peaceful and soft, but still sweet.
*6. Mid. Almost catchy with a bright, recurring theme.
7. Mid/slow. Gentle and scattered.
8. Mid. Lullaby with a slow, peaceful progression.
9. Mid. Rhythmic, with a deliberate theme.
*10. Up. Energetic and slightly chaotic with some nice playing.
11. Mid. Rhythmic and focused, with gentle determination.
12. Mid/slow. Somewhat sad and introspective.
13. Mid. Actually called “introspective”, but a bit brighter.
14. Slow. Cautious and delicate, with a few quick bursts (“tip toe”).
