Cosmopolitan world flair a la Jobim with a Persian flavor. The woodiness of guitar on a balcony overlooking a quiet world awakening up and down the
street. Honey sweet melody with matching female vocals. Virtuosic performance on nylon string guitars. Walk on a Spanish promenade with sunbrellas, cool drinks and Jackie Onassis sunglasses.
