A Delightful Trip To Brazil.......2007-07-08

In the late 60's and mid 70's, I recall as a young child of listening to Brazilian music on the radio. It truly made an impact on me as an adult as I did not realize until recently that I was listening to the great composer, Antonio Carlos Jobim. I also did not realize the magnitude of his influence on other artists such as Brazil 66. One must imagine my delight when I discovered I could purchase "The Composer of Desafinda, Play" cd as I feel the compositions take me to Brazil. It is an absolutely beautiful and melodic cd that "takes me away" from every stress.

DESAFINADO - ANTONIO CARLOS JOBIN.......2007-04-04

Tremendous record. Could listen to this music for hours. The music is soothing, melodious, relaxing, a compilation of Jobim's best songs. I had the original LP of this record and unfortunately lost it, when I moved to a new home. I feel very fortunate in that Amazon had the CD recording available.Great music.

Fantastic, unbelievably wonderful CD.......2006-07-27

Perfect for cooling down in the hot summer! Get a nice, cool drink with crushed ice, find a nice air conditioner to be near, put on this CD and RELAX!! If you need more than this to calm down, you will have to visit your physician to get a prescription! I've loved this since it was an album in the sixties (and I was a teenager)and now I truly enjoy it in my fifties! It is timeless music that never grows old nor becomes dated. Perfect for gift giving as I cannot imagine anyone who would not enjoy this music. You will have to play it many times as once is not enough!!

Composer of Desafinado.......2006-03-14

One of the best albums of all time. It fits in the "Desert Island" category. Jobim plays with artless simplicity, backed by subtle strings and percussion that's superlative. I've listened to and loved this album for over 40 years and never tired of it.

Classic Jobim.......2005-10-06

Beautiful music by one of the greatest composers of song of the 20th century or any other. Still a great CD to study for those interested in the Brazilian bossa nova style. Despite sometimes sounding a bit too sweetened by the hand of Claus Ogerman's string writing for our contemporary ears, this is a classic that should be in the collection of all fans of this genre.

Brazil meets Germany.......2007-01-27

This album was Jobim's formal introduction to the U.S. audience with a record of his own. This album was also the beginning of a relationship - a Brazilian meeting a German - someone with whom Jobim would eventually make seven albums. This is nothing short of historic and U.S. producer Creed Taylor alone is responsible for it. Jobim came to the U.S. without an arranger; he was at the mercy of producer Creed, who almost without reservation recommended someone named Claus Ogerman who had only been working in the U.S. since 1959. Creed had already heard a bit of Claus' work by this time and just knew they would be right for each other.

Claus' work for Jobim so impressed him that Claus was asked to arrange more and more LPs for Tom. Tom eventually wound up calling Claus "The Meister" and one listen to this LP will tell anyone WHY. After all the study I have done on both these men, I am firmly convinced that Jobim time and time again would have continued to use Claus as his arranger - if Claus had agreed. It is clear from everything I know that the feeling was mutual and that Claus considered Tom a VERY good friend. They even spent "after hours" together in conversation about the subjects that interested Jobim: the environment, music, the classics - everything. Claus declined to arrange for Tom again after 1980 only due to wanting to spend the majority of his time composing classical music and therefore forsaking his arranging days...I have a feeling that even after 1980, Tom would continue to call Claus just to see if he had indeed changed his mind...

So, we have two heavyweight talents on this album - the mighty Tom Jobim with his sweet bossa novas - and Claus Ogerman with his equally sweet treatment of those wonderful melodies and harmonies. Listen carefully to the talents of both men and see how on each track, their work compliments each other.

When you don't feel so right with the world or are having a bad day, listen to a track on this album and see for yourself if you don't almost instantly feel better. This is an extremely uplifting album in so many ways - the tracks will make your spirit soar!

Delicate Songbird flying in an Antonio Carlos Jobim ensemble.......2006-02-24

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.

So achingly cool.......2001-05-18

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.

Your collection of CDs should include this.......2007-01-09

This CDs is one of the most important albums of Carlos Jobim, no wonder it is published in several versions (limited, luxury, gold and who knows what else...). It is also a milestone in the history of Bossa Nova, this album had a tremendous success in the US and launched the bossa nova craze. Responsible for the orchestration was Claus Ogerman (one of his recent deeds is the album Look of love of Diana Krall). This music is joyous and melancholic at the same time, it is impossible to get bored when listening to it, not even if you do so for the 100th time. The sound quality and the package is also fantastic.
