Happy are the Onion Sellers!
I simply love this track from João as it reminds me of Fellini Movies of the 1950s/60s. Not sure I got all the changes or timing right, but had a blast soaking up the wonderful spirit of this music. Tenor sax in backing mode with harmonies and counterpoint. It's the only track I've ever recorded that my wife asked me to play her twice!

Lovely mix of sounds and, yeah, the Fellini reference seems apt to me. The kind of music that transports you to a different place, wonderful to hear.

The comparison with Felini's films is funny and true. You offer the softness and the joy of your sax. Your lady appreciates a lot too ;)

Thanks so Much titi. Could have also been movies by Jacques Tati. He's one of my all time favorites! We seldom see his movies here. Do they still show them in France?

Yes. These are films that are a bit old now, but it is still possible to see them. Jacques Tati and in the hearts of French people who have a lot of tenderness for him and his works :)

I was very young (maybe 10 years old around 1956?) when I saw Mr Hulot's Holiday, but found it incredibly quirky and funny. I've only see four of his movies since, but all had his unusual point of view that swept you up and kept you amused and interested. So unique!

His films are part of the French cinematographic heritage. His mischievous and offbeat eye (for the time) made his works cinematic classics. His films are still on public TV.

Thanks Andri. I guess you're old enough to have seen some of these? Then maybe you're an old movie buff?
