Antonio Carlos Jobim - The Composer Of Desafinado, Plays (Clear Vinyl) [LP]

Antonio Carlos Jobim's first American album is a masterpiece of understated elegance, presenting a dozen songs that would become bossa nova standards. Despite claiming to be out of practice, Jobim's sparse, single-hand piano style lets his flowing melodies shine. Claus Ogerman's signature arrangements -- airy flutes, brooding strings, and lush harmonies -- enhance timeless gems like "Desafinado," "Corcovado," "The Girl from Ipanema," and "One Note Samba." A defining moment in bossa nova's global ascent. A1. The Girl From Ipanema A2. Amor Em Paz (Once I Loved) A3. Agua De Beber A4. Vivo Sonhando (Dreamer) A5. Favelaq A6. Insensatez (How Intensive) B1.
