@buzz8051@GracaVilaca Da minha experiência, discordo.
Generalizações sobre uma classe inteira dificilmente fazem justiça ao trabalho diário de quem ensina e acompanha os alunos.
Mas não somos perfeitos, estou ciente disso.
@buzz8051@GracaVilaca Respeito a opinião, mas não a partilho. A grande maioria dos professores preocupa-se com os alunos todos os dias do ano, não apenas nos exames. Generalizações como essa ignoram o trabalho, a dedicação e a responsabilidade que muitos docentes assumem diariamente.
Fica um gajo acordado até às tantas para ver isto!!
O "Ruca" é absolutamente miserável e incompetente, mas nós, como bons portugueses, vamos dizer que a culpa é do "Rónálde"!!!

Ryuichi Sakamoto's Interview Excerpts:
From Asahi Shimbun and Monthly Latina in 2001
When Jaques Morelenbaum and I performed together at a concert in '96, his wife Paula suggested,
"Jobim has so many hidden gems. Why don't we make an album together?"
Around that same time, I was invited to Jobim's home by his widow, Ana, and had the chance to play his piano in the study, left exactly as it was during his lifetime. On top of the piano were scores by Chopin and Debussy, and through the open windows you could hear birds and insects. That impression stayed with me very strongly. So I immediately thought: let's do it, and let's record it in that room, using that piano.
Including rehearsals, I spent a week playing the piano at Jobim's house. Since it hadn't been touched for six years, tuning it was quite a challenge. But when I touched the keys that had turned black from Jobim playing them so much in his lifetime — worn down to the point where his fingerprints remained — something warm welled up inside me. The household staff had all been working there since Jobim was alive, and they said joyfully, "Music has come back to this house for the first time in six years."
When we were first recording "As Praias Desertas," at the very moment I finished playing the melody in the piano part, a bird called out sharply from outside the window. The timing was so extraordinary it made me shudder. Jobim had apparently said, "I am a bird," and "When I die, I'll live in a utopia full of birds and animals."
Jaques, Paula, and I all felt that the bird just then was Jobim.
The reason I chose 'CASA' as the album title: we recorded in Jobim's 'house'; Jobim and I are both members of a great musical 'home (family)' stretching back to the Romantic era; and the Earth itself is our 'house.' Jobim had a deep awareness of ecology and the environment. How deeply he cherished music, how profoundly he loved nature. I believe his posture and attitude have had an enormous influence on me.

The remaster will be released on CD and LP by Warner Music Japan on June 24, 2026.
