Months after the release of 20,000 Éguas Submarinas, the Orquestra Jazz de Matosinhos (OJM) invited Rui Reininho on a unique journey through the mysteries of this newly released album. Live at Casa da Música and Real Vinícola, under the artistic direction of Pedro Guedes, the orchestra reimagined the compositions in a big band format and joined Rui Reininho, Paulo Borges, and Alexandre Soares on this imaginary voyage.

The success of these performances sparked the desire to record this collaboration on an album. The result is now available in stores: a live recording featuring five tracks captured at CARA – Centro de Alto Rendimento Artístico, OJM’s studio. Produced by Rui Reininho and Pedro Guedes, the album also features Alexandre Soares as co-producer and responsible for remixing the track NamasTea.
