5.0 out of 5 stars So achingly cool, May 18, 2001

This review is from: Antonio Carlos Jobim & Miucha (Audio CD)

Since first hearing these haunting tunes 26 years ago, each revisit has been a treat. You can't listen to Desafinado or Corcovado and not want to curl up on a couch with someone you love and a glass of good wine. The melodies range from sprightly to melancholy, so you'll always find one to fit your mood. The Getz/Gilbero/Jobim album is no less an all-star than this one, but don't miss this dose of undiluted Jobim magic.

5.0 out of 5 stars Delicate Songbird flying in an Antonio Carlos Jobim ensemble, February 23, 2006

This review is from: Antonio Carlos Jobim & Miucha (Audio CD)

Miucha is the one-word name and nickname of a delicate Brazilian songbird in a low key style but pretty fine tuning. Her good taste for repertoire choice is her another quality.

If it is important to you: she is sister to Chico Buarque and was wife to Joao Gilberto.

This was a smash hit album in Brazil and it includes fresh new material like 'Vai Levando', a delicious Bossa Nova with its chorus "a gente vai levando'.

Jobim's presence is a registered mark with his special and well crafted ensemble. He plays the piano and sings along with Miucha.

All sung in Portuguese.
