Stan Getz • Getz Plays Jobimː The Girl From Ipanema

 

This CD gives us bossa nova's greatest soloist playing the tunes of its greatest composer, culling every song by Antonio Carlos Jobim that Getz recorded for Verve between 1962 and 1964. The biggest hits are here, including "The Girl from Ipanema" and "Corcovado" with João and Astrud Gilberto's charming vocals, while "Desafinado" and "One Note Samba" appear in both the original instrumental versions with Charlie Byrd and later vocal recordings with the Brazilians. The surprises come with the lesser-known Jobim songs, like "O Morro Nao Tem Vez," a gently keening, minor theme accompanied here by a largely Brazilian band that includes Jobim and the superb guitarist Luiz Bonfá. Another is "Eu e Voce," with Getz soaring in a Carnegie Hall performance. Subtle differences abound in the way the different Brazilian and American groups approach the material, but it's all tied together by Jobim's scintillating melodies and Getz's gorgeous sound and inspired improvisations. –Amazon

Este CD nos ofrece al mejor solista de la bossa nova interpretando los temas de su mayor compositor, recogiendo todas las canciones de Antonio Carlos Jobim que Getz grabó para Verve entre 1962 y 1964. Los mayores éxitos están aquí, incluyendo "The Girl from Ipanema" y "Corcovado" con las encantadoras voces de João y Astrud Gilberto, mientras que "Desafinado" y "One Note Samba" aparecen tanto en las versiones instrumentales originales con Charlie Byrd como en las posteriores grabaciones vocales con los brasileños. Las sorpresas llegan con las canciones menos conocidas de Jobim, como "O Morro Nao Tem Vez", un tema menor suavemente agudo acompañado aquí por una banda mayoritariamente brasileña que incluye a Jobim y al magnífico guitarrista Luiz Bonfá. Otra es "Eu e Voce", con Getz elevándose en una interpretación en el Carnegie Hall. Abundan las sutiles diferencias en la forma en que los distintos grupos brasileños y estadounidenses abordan el material, pero todo está unido por las centelleantes melodías de Jobim y el magnífico sonido y las inspiradas improvisaciones de Getz. -Amazon
