This CD focuses on Brazilian Samba and Bossa Nova styles and was recorded with an ensemble setting. Here Kirtley's sound comes from the nylon-string guitar instead of his usual steel-string. Through this period, Kirtley also released a number of video projects, including three instructional titles for Stefan Grossman 's Guitar Workshop, as well as producing a number of videos on other artists. In 1999 he released the video Nine Pound Hammer:
