In 1970, Werther Jacques Vervloet recorded the Werther
album (Stylo label) and, in the late 1990s, it was rediscovered by researchers of
Brazilian music. The german producer Sérgio Roig has managed to
gather all the information on this album and is now relaunching it
by the Altercat Records label, in CD format, with a 20 page
booklet, telling the album's previously undisclosed story in
Portuguese and English. Tranka Oliveira, besides the musical
direction, played acoustic bass, tenor sax and piano.
