Latin / Brazilian Traditions / Samba / Brazilian Pop

Nearly 50 years after beginning his career, Cartola, the maestro of the samba, released his first album, and it exudes the quiet grace and rural charm that the samba featured decades before it was modernized later in the century. Of course, all the songs were written by Cartola himself (just 12 of the hundreds he composed), and most are by him alone. Those with limited knowledge of Brazilian music will find Cartola's vocal style closest to the quiet and husky growl of João Gilberto, with an accompanying slow groove and textured guitars. It's a vivid document of Brazilian roots music, featuring the instruments and stylings that all of the most famed artists of the '60s (Jobim, Gilberto, Veloso, Gil) would draw upon for their artistry.

Bossa nova is a genre of Brazilian music, which developed and was popularized in the 1950s and 1960s and is today one of the best-known Brazilian music genres abroad…

Classical / Latin / Jazz / Bossa Nova / Brazilian Traditions

Antonio Carlos Jobim as a symphonic composer? Jobim, arguably the finest songwriter of the 1960s and the founder of bossa nova, was classically trained and wrote some pieces along the way for a string orchestra. In addition to his arrangements, his compositions were arranged for an orchestra by the likes of Claus Ogerman, Nelson Riddle, Eumir Deodato, Dori Caymmi, Paulo Jobim, and Mario Adnet for this project. The double CD does not have much bossa nova and, although some of the melodies are familiar, others are very obscure and in two cases were previously unrecorded.
