此曲為巴西民謠的改編曲，曲風活潑，節奏明確。樂曲結合了巴西最受歡迎的兩首民謠；以此兩首民謠的旋律互相搭配，讓聽眾能輕鬆地享受優美的旋律，也能感受拉丁音樂的熱情節奏，作曲家更運用人聲製造出許多特殊聲響，令人有如置身拉丁美洲般的氛圍。 嘿！織蕾絲的女孩，請你教我如何編織，我會教你怎麼求愛。 維古李諾就是藍佩歐，他既是藍帕又是藍佩歐， 他的名字叫維古李諾，小名是藍佩歐。

Not sure of the source, but possibly an arrangement of a song written by the Williams Brothers, a traditional black gospel music group from Jackson, Mississippi formed in 1960. This is a slowed down version with the word 'God' replaced with 'love'.   This concert was the culmination of a six-week project which creates a Choir from scratch for one night only. Each winter and summer, Chris Rowbury gathers a random bunch of singers from in and around Ipswich. There are no auditions and all songs are taught and learnt by ear. Usually eight songs are learnt in six two-hour sessions and in the winter are performed at St. Peters by the Waterfront, Ipswich. http://chrisrowbury.com  less

Comprising both Choir and period-instrument orchestra, The Sixteen’s total commitment to the music it performs is its greatest distinction. A special reputation for performing early English polyphony, masterpieces of the Renaissance, bringing fresh insights into Baroque and early Classical music and a diversity of 20th-century music, is drawn from the passions of conductor and founder Harry Christophers. At home in the UK, The Sixteen are “The Voices of Classic FM” and Associate Artists of The Bridgewater Hall, Manchester. The group promotes The Choral Pilgrimage, an annual tour of Britain's finest cathedrals bringing music back to the buildings for which it was written. The Sixteen has recently featured in the highly successful BBC television series, Sacred Music, presented by actor Simon Russell Beale - a second series which focused on the music of Brahms, Bruckner, Fauré, Pärt and Tave...    less
