Na Floresta25. No Chuveiro26. Abertura (Short Version)Garrincha is a true Brazilian legend, one of the all-time great footballers, revered to this day. Focusing on his zenith, from 1953 to 1962 – during which time he twice inspired Brazil to World Cup glory – this soundtrack is suitably of the period. With beautiful Ipanemas-esque soulful samba sitting alongside carnival batucada, darker cinematic experimentalism, and playful jazz funk, this collection of Leo Gandelman scores mirrors and celebrates Garrincha’s amazingly fast paced life; at times glorious, at others a car crash. Garrincha remains so popular in Brazil that he is remembered as Joy of the People.
