The first album by Luiz Gayotto, O Catarina reveals an inspired lyricist — if even too much influenced by the vanguarda paulistana (São Paulo's vanguard), and still without many new things to declare. The best track is "Desculpa," with the colloquial tone of the lyrics (a contribution by Rumo's Luiz Tatit) reinforced by the spoken speech (a renewal of Stravinsky via the same Tatit) and feeble synth sounds and a flesh and blood saxophonist trying to reproduce the findings of Arrigo Barnabé. "Na Taberna" has the instigating Caribbean sounds but remains an unfulfilled promise due to the weak melody. Simple, straightforward melodies, pop arrangements with sparse electronics complete the picture of a sincere composer still in search of a personal voice.
