Customer Reviews:

Wow!!!.......2007-01-27

I'm almost ashamed to admit it, because I've grown up listening to the old João Gilberto & Stan Getz versions of Tom Jobim's songs, but there are a few recordings on this CD that I like even BETTER than the originals! In particular the versions of Agua de Beber and Aguas de Março are spectacular. Anyone who likes Bossa Nova will love this CD.

FITTING TRIBUTE TO THE LATE GREAT ANTONIO.......2006-11-04

WHAT CAN I SAY???!!! I think the title of my review says it all. I have listened to many Jobim tribute albums from Eliane Elias, Manfredo Fest, Rosa Pasos and Ivan Lins, etc. ALL OF THEM DIFFERENT AND GREAT INTREPRETATIONS OF THE LATE GREAT BRAZILIAN'S WORK. However, the Jobim aficionados will be shortchanging themselves if they don't purchase this CD!! The Jobim family does an outstanding job establishing the relevance of Antonio's bossa nova legacy for the 21st century in this recording. These tasteful/smooth arrangements and performances of Antonio's greatest works are from his son, Daniel, his grandson Paulo on guitar, Paula, his wife on vocals and lets not forget the beautiful sound of Jacques Morelenbaum's cello. Bravo Jobim Morelenbaum!!! Enjoy this recording!!!

Beleza Pura!.......2005-10-18

This is simply the most amazing example of the Bossa Nova sound ever compiled on one CD. An awesome tribute to Jobim, the Quarteto brings more out of these Bossa Nova standards than Jobim himself might have imagined, adding a hip, energetic, soulful lilt to the classics. You can FEEL Jobim's affines giving it all on piano, guitar, and vocals! Buy this CD now and then see them in concert!

Good bossa nova music.......2003-12-17

I was fortunate to find this CD at Borders. It's awesome. If you're into old-school bossa nova, this will whet your appetites because the Quarteto stays true to A.C. Jobim's original flavor, but they make his music sound even more fresh. The vocalists are also good; their voices blend so well together. It's a good purchase!

perfection is right.......2003-10-19

I didn't know that I liked this kind of music but bought the CD after watching the DVD of the film Black Orpheus. I have been almost constantly listening to it since then. The songs are lovely; the musicianship is spirited but flawless. There are so many moments of extreme elegance and charm that listening to it becomes an almost visceral experience. It doesn't matter that I can't understand the lyrics, the feeling in the music easily transcends language. Not a molecule of sound has been misplaced.
