The historic Joao Gilberto concert at Sesc Sao Paulo, 25 years ago, is now available in a high-quality live recording.

The release - a real treasure of Brazilian music - also features a previously unreleased song, "Rei sem coroa", in the voice of the master of Bossa Nova.

The double-CD is the first in release from Relicario, a permanent project that presents the memory of Sesc Sao Paulo with media from the institution's collection: For more than 70 years, Sesc has worked in various cultural actions, aiming to stimulate personal autonomy, interaction and contact with expressions and different ways of thinking, acting and feeling.

The project starts with audio from historical concerts held at Sesc community centers in the 1970s, 1980s and 1990s, remastered as albums. The series also offers the historical context of each record, through texts, videos and photographs.
