Antonio Carlos Jobim's - Finest Hour
Genre: Jazz
Release: June 27, 2000
Label: Polygram Records
While Antonio Carlos Jobim is an essential figure in the music of Brazil,
he also created a significant place for himself in American music as a
great songwriter and a key figure in the tremendous popularity of bossa
nova. Apart from his unique melodic gift, what makes Jobim's work
memorable is the complexity of mood he could evoke--the touch of
sadness that colors the brightest bossa nova, the irony in the midst
of joy, and the mixture of delicacy and resilience in his voice and piano.
He was an artist who worked primarily in pastels, but it was his sense
of shadows that gave his work its most enduring qualities. Including his
most famous tunes and collaborators--like "The Girl from Ipanema" with
Stan Getz and Astrud Gilberto--Jobim's Finest Hour catches it all, from
the standard-bearers to such gems as the playful "Aguas de Marco."
