"In the middle of the miserable winter of '96 Michael Tilson Thomas invited me to Miami to help prepare a program on Villa-Lobos music with the New World Symphony Orchestra.
When I got there, I found him sitting on a swimming pool of musical sheets. He was having trouble with a complicated transition from violas to violins. There were so many notes written on the paper he showed me that it seemed as if thousands of dead flies were laying on the music sheet.
My immediate reaction was to play the berimbau and sing the simple Brazilian folk melody that Villa-Lobos had based his composition on, and so I had the idea of developing a work based on the sources Villa-Lobos used in his music, exploring the various percussion elements predominant throughout his work.
Only a man of strange appetites like John Zorn (may God keep him like that), could give me the courage to make this idea come alive. As for Villa, if he turns over in his grave and throws up dust, I'm sorry. He is a dead genius, I am a live idiot." Cyro Baptista

"Since the early '80s, Cyro Baptista has been the percussionist of choice for many a downtown New York ensemble, perhaps achieving greatest prominence in John Zorn's Bar Kokhba chamber group. Here, Baptista performs music written or inspired by the Brazilian composer Heitor Villa Lobos and the result is a fine compendium, bristling with Brazilian rhythms, earthy folk songs and impassioned accordions among other delights. Happily shedding any traces of irony (which mar many a "downtown" venture), his band wades thigh deep into the songs, led by Baptista's wonderfully guttural vocals. And what a fine band! With New York stalwarts like guitarist Marc Ribot and bassist Greg Cohen joined by Chango Spasiuk (accordion) and Romero Lubambo (acoustic guitar), Baptista has a assembled a group both light on its feet and capable of negotiating the trickiest of rhythmic passages and deliriously romantic melodies with wit, enthusiasm, and grace. Highly recommended." Brian Olewnick

"Vira Loucos-for the unitiated-is one of today's quintessetial albums, hands down. It is a collection of interpretations of the music of famed Brazilian composer Heitor Villa Lobos by one of the world's reigning kings of percussion: the wizard Cyro Baptista. This album is a true testament to his mastery of music, as it will take the listener on a musical journey that is dynamic, virtuosic, grooving, and absolutely unique in sound and vision. This is an album that any true lover of quality music will cherish for the rest of their music-listening days!
The Musicians come together to really make this music work. Marc Ribot, Zorn, Greg Cohen, hard to go wrong. The music is strong and I keep coming back for more listens... Check it out - you won't be disappointed!" Amazon
