Disc Two |
Reviews:
Quaterna, who promised a good show, didn't disappoint us. They opened
with Fanfare, and afterwards we had the
long (almost 40 minutes) suite Quasimodo from the album with
the same name. The band the band surprised us with a new song that
will be released in 1998; an excellent duel between
keys and drums.
Irmaos Grimm shows all the talent of Jose Roberto Crivano, one
of the best guitarists of Brazilian progressive
scene. The new bass player Fred, who has been in the band since
the beginning, gave new life to the sound. But the
surprise was in the final: Kleber Vogel - band member on the
first disc Velha Gravura - entered and played the
same name track. It was memorable. The solos were amazing. I
saw some people crying!!!
Then we had Violeta de Outono, with their leader Fabio
Golfetti (and Fabio Ribeiro on the keys). Everybody was
hypnotized by the "glissando" effects from his electric
guitar, which surrounded the Scala.
The show basicaly consisted of the songs from the first album
and some tracks of the second and the new CD.
Some people say that this is the Brazilian Hawkwind.
Finally, Par Lindh came on the stage at almost 01:30. The
keyboards of the Swedish musician were at the left side
of the stage. And we had another amazing and unforgetable
show. During some moments, I ask myself if this
thing was really happening. During the first tracks, I thought
that the drummer would crash the drum set. An energy
and a power never seen!
All of the new disc was played. The covers: Jerusalem with a
fascinant female vocal, Fanfare for.... from EL&P and
some classics like Carmina Burana and Phantom of the Opera.
But in 21st Century Schizoid Man from King Crimson,
the drummer showed that his voice is a powerful music
instrument, like his drums! The guitar and the bass were
instruments apart, even the guitarist had a solo piece, were
the drummer sings some songs!
