Born in Rio de Janeiro, Vinicius, also known as "Poetinha", explored music with the same depth with which he wrote his verses. In this recording, one perceives that intimate connection between word and melody, a reflection of his artistic approach where each composition felt like a natural extension of his poetic vocation.

About the album

Como dizia o poeta, according to DoReSol

Within this album, we find gems like Tarde em Itapoan, a piece that evokes vivid images and melancholic atmospheres, and Samba de Gesse, which immerses us in Brazilian rhythm with contagious energy. The structure of the songs, often built on the foundation of his poems, allows for very expressive vocal interpretation, where every syllable counts. Vinicius collaborated with great names in Brazilian music throughout his career, and in this work, one feels that richness of influences that enrich his proposal.

The work of Vinicius de Moraes is a testament to his versatility, encompassing theater, film, and, of course, music. However, he always considered himself a poet above all, and that perspective filters into every note and every verse of Como dizia o poeta. The album, with its twelve tracks, offers a journey through different facets of his musical expression, from the intimacy of a ballad to the vitality of a samba, always with that personal touch that made him so beloved.
