O’s Notes: Hamilton de Holanda is a renowned Brazilian mandolinist and composer. For Brasilianos 3 he leads a quintet with André Vasconcellos (b), Gabriel Grossing (harmonica), Marcio Bahia (d) and Daniel Santiago (g). It is an acoustic effort with crisp clean sound that is dynamic yet soothing in what has become de Holanda’s signature sound. They perform nine fresh originals many of which contrast moods and textures. The legendary Milton Nascimento joins them on “Guerra e Paz I” accentuating a solid performance.
