5.0 out of 5 stars A Historic Event, February 6, 2001

By	Roney E. Rodrigues (St. Petersburg, FL United States) - See all my reviews

This live album is a milestone. Sharing the same stage we find four great names in Brazilian music. The first is Miucha, Chico Buarque's sister and Joao Gilberto's former wife. She had just recorded an album with Jobim, joining her sweet voice to his delicate piano. Vinicius, who is acclaimed as the most important poet of Brazilian music, has written several wonderful songs, among them: The Girl From Ipanema, How Insensitive, and No More Blues. Toquinho was still in his 20's when he and Vinicius started a musical partnership that lasted over ten years, till Vinicius passed away in 1980. Toquinho's youth and talent as a guitarist were the perfect complements to Vinicius' poetry. Together they produced several new sambas during this period. About Jobim... I don't think I need to introduce Jobim, but you may be interested in listening to him playing the flute (his first instrument was the piano, and he only played the guitar in the US to help establish the concept of bossa nova as being a combination of acoustic guitar and voice). Aloisio de Oliveira, director of the recording company, wrote about the concert: "I'm sure we are witnessing a historic event in the Brazilian music. In the near future we will look back in time and realize this." He was right.

4.0 out of 5 stars Miucha, April 27, 2005

By	escn "escn" (USA) - See all my reviews

Great review below -- I just wanted to add that Astrud Gilberto is João Gilberto's ex-wife. He has been married to Miucha for many decades. (Bebel Gilberto is their daughter.)

Also, for Miucha fans: one of her best-ever recordings is Rosa Amarela. It's out of print, but well worth tracking down. (It's a small group session, and her accompanists are among Rio's finest.)

5.0 out of 5 stars one of the great musical events, June 6, 2007

By	Larry Brill (ny ny) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

it was 1977 and my wife & i were lucky enough to be in rio at the concert. a giant quonset hut of a building. two stages. dancing. drinking. dining. what a nite to remember. breath taking. the music of the evening will never leave our heads (and bodies). everything mr rodrigues says about the recoring is absolutly true. one of the great musical events i've ever been to...and i've been to many.
