Hamilton de Holanda

Intimo realises Brazilian mandolin virtuoso Hamilton de Holanda’s long-time dream to record an album that would capture the intimacy of his mandolin, generally heard only in hotel rooms and at home.

Recorded on the road with a portable setup, it aims to communicate the quietness and restfulness experienced when he plays on his own, simply for the enjoyment of playing. There are no arrangements, just impromptu versions of songs that live in his consciousness - 3 of his own pieces and songs by Tom Jobim, Guinga, Chico Buarque and Noel Rosa.
