Águas da Amazônia, Sete ou oito peças para um balé (Portuguese for 'Waters of the Amazon, seven or eight pieces for a ballet') is a 1993–99 musical composition by the American contemporary classical composer Philip Glass. Its first recording was performed by the Brazilian instrumental group Uakti.
Originally composed as a dance score for a ballet company of Belo Horizonte (Grupo Corpo),[1] following the introduction between Uakti and Philip Glass by Paul Simon, it draws inspiration from the Amazon waters with tones of classical, new age, and jazz music.
