Description
This two-CD set brings together a generous cross-section of recordings from two of bossa nova’s most iconic figures — João Gilberto, the genre’s rhythmic and harmonic architect, and Astrud Gilberto, whose cool, conversational vocal style captivated the world. Spanning beloved standards and deep cuts alike, the collection includes defining performances such as ‘The Girl From Ipanema (Garota de Ipanema)’, the harmonically rich ‘Desafinado’, and the luminous ‘Água de Beber’. With 34 tracks spread across two discs, this set offers an expansive introduction to the intimate, softly swinging sound that transformed popular music in the early 1960s and continues to resonate today…
