“ Sunday afternoon. In the studio of Villa-Lobos. The admirable pianist Tomás Terán sits at the piano. He prestigiously plays one of Villa-Lobos’s Cirandas suites… And the formidable voice of America, with its wild rhythms, its primitive melodies, its contrasts and shocks which evoke humanity’s childhood, sounds forth in the heat of a summer afternoon, through a music of the utmost refinement and actuality. Alejo Carpentier, quoted in an article by Paulo Renato Guérios. See this page for more information on Tomás Terán.
