This is a live recording from a show by Seu Jorge and Ana Carolina in São Paulo in August 2005. Jorge and Carolina are two of the most successful artists who appeared on the Brazilian popular music scene during the first years of the new millennium. The concert was largely acoustic, with rather sparse musical arrangements. This creates a more intimate atmosphere as Carolina and Jorge perform songs from their respective solo careers. Jorge's "Beat da Beata," as the song title suggests, has a stronger and fuller beat than the other songs. "É Isso Aí" is a version of Damien Rice's "Blower's Daughter," written by Carolina.
