Orquestra St. Moritz, Erlon Chaves – Procura-se Uma Virgem

Procura-se Uma Virgem is the original soundtrack to the 1971 Brazilian film of the same name, performed by the Orquestra St. Moritz and arranged and directed by Erlon Chaves, one of the key figures in 20th-century Brazilian popular and instrumental music.

The album blends funk, jazz, soul, Latin influences and psychedelic lounge textures, resulting in a cinematic, sensual and highly rhythmic atmosphere. Built around groove-driven instrumental tracks, prominent organ lines and a strong experimental edge, the soundtrack has become a cult item among reissues of 1970s Brazilian music and is highly sought after by collectors of jazz-funk and library music. Erlon Chaves’ distinctive musical direction gives the record a sophisticated identity and a rich, unmistakable sonic character within the era’s soundtrack tradition.
