"Apreciated in the entire world, the Brazilian music owes its prestige not only to its creators, but to the musicians that love Brazilian music and lend in their talent. This is the case of Alfredo Muro, a fabulous Peruvian instrumentalist that, in this CD, offers us a refined brazilianism, with no accent. After listening to "Alma Brasileira" (Brazilian Soul), we are left with a desire to give him a standing ovation, to hug him, and to tell him in his hear: "Thank you very much".
