This fabled 11 minute+ version of Brazilian icon Joyce's groundbreaking "Feminina" was recorded at Columbia Studios, New York in 1977, for the as yet unreleased Natureza album.
Produced, arranged and conducted by the great arranger and orchestra leader Claus Ogerman (who worked with Frank Sinatra, Antonio Carlos Jobim), Natureza would have ostensibly been Joyce's big break to international stardom, but mysteriously it was never released.
With Joyce came fellow Brazilian icons Mauricio Maestro, Nana Vasconcelos and Tutty Moreno, and Ogerman employed North American jazz legends Joe Farrell, Michael Brecker, Buster Williams and Mike Manieri.
