Inspired by the writing of Pero Vaz de Caminha, the secretary and keeper of the journal chronicling the events of the first Portuguese expedition to Brazil in the year 1500, the Trio describes the explorers' first sighting of the land and its people. The Trio was written by Almeida Prado in the year 2000 upon the occasion of the 500th anniversary of the Portuguese discovery of Brazil.
