Cielo e Terra is an album by jazz guitarist Al Di Meola that was released in 1985. Airto Moreira plays all percussion on "Traces (of a Tear)", "Cielo e Terra", "When You're Gone", and "Solace".
Cielo e Terra's original title was to be 21st Century Guitar, an homage to Julian Bream's 20th Century Guitar (1966) album. He greatly appreciates Bream's rendition of Frank Martin's "Quatre pièces brèves" (1933), available on the record. He has performed them live on occasion. [2]
