5.0 out of 5 stars Tom Jobim Canta Vinicius Ao Vivo, September 22, 2000

This review is from: Canta Vinicius (Audio CD)

The recent release by the Jobim family of this Tom Jobim live concert recorded some 10 years ago in the honour of the Brazilian poet Vinicius de Moreas is a true "must have" for all those who have come to admire the work of Tom Jobim and Vinicius de Moreas. For those who are only vaguely familiar with this work, I would argue that this is the occassion to get acquainted better (be prepared though...it'll also get under your skin !) Tom Jobim, together with members of the Banda Nova, at his best ! The album contains the very highlights of the so productive partnership between the former diplomat turned poet Vinicius de Moreas and the giant of Brazilian music. Performed are -obviously- the famous Garota de Ipanema, but also the Carta ao Tom (including the amusing reply message indicating that no more view from the window of the appartment at Rua nascimento Silva 107 in Rio -where most of the songwriting took place- at the Corcovado exists), the Sonata de Adeus and many more comparable jewels. The recording quality is outstanding and the emotional atmosphere of the concert (recorded at the Canecao in Rio de Janeiro) comes across very well. I can only hope that the Jobim family will release more of this kind of material in the near future.
