Girl from Bossa Nova

(SACD-HYBRID) Jacintha picks up the tempo on her first bossa nova session. Featuring a program of some of the most well known classics of the genre, including several Jobim favorites like So Nice, Desafinado, Dindi and Corcovado, as well as less familiar tunes like O Ganso and So Danco Samba, this CD is a striking change of pace for Jacintha. With superb work from tenor Harry Allen and guitarist John Pisano (ex-Diana Krall), the album's supreme finishing is the magical playing of legendary Brazilian master percussionist Paulinho Da Costa, who blesses the entire album with an authentic bossa nova vibe. This high-resolution SACD version offers even better sound than the stereo CD with the added bonus of a dynamic multi-channel mix as well! A must buy for Jacintha fans and all bossa nova lovers.
