A tribute to the great Hermeto Pascoal, who passed away in 2025. "O Farol Que Nos Guia" - "The Beacon That Guides Us". Played on Italian mandolin (a copy of an Embergher Tipo A) and Brazilian 7-string guitar (Del Vecchio).

Recorded in the week of the commemoration of VE day, here's my arrangement of Noel Coward's lovely 1941 song "London Pride". The story goes that Coward was walking the streets of the city in the days of the Blitz and was inspired by seeing the London Pride flower (that's saxifraga x urbium to botanists!) growing among the wreckage, and the determination and resilience of the ordinary London people in the streets and markets. As we're commemorating a joyful day I've also added in a few celebratory church bells!! " ... London Pride has been handed down to us London Pride is a flower that's free London Pride means our own dear town to us And our pride it forever will be Grey city Stubbornly implanted Taken so for granted For a thousand years Stay, city Smokily enchanted Cradle of our memories Of our hopes and fears ... "
