A musician of virtuosity, subtlety, and passion, guitarist, singer and composer Luiz Bonfá (1922-2001) ranks among the key architects of the bossa nova sound and the greatest masters of Brazilian popular music of the 20th century. As a composer and performer, Bonfá was at heart an exponent of the bold, lyrical, lushly orchestrated, and emotionally charged samba-canção style that predated the arrival of João Gilberto's more refined and subdued bossa nova style.
Presented here is one of his greatest albums, Plays and Sings Bossa Nova, on which he collaborates with such stars as Leo Wright, Oscar Castro-Neves and Lalo Schifrin. This superb release includes Bonfá's classic version of his tune "Manhã de Carnaval" (aka "Black Orpheus"), among many other highlights.

Músico de virtuosismo, sutileza y pasión, el guitarrista, cantante y compositor Luiz Bonfá (1922-2001) se encuentra entre los arquitectos clave del sonido bossa nova y los más grandes maestros de la música popular brasileña del siglo XX. Como compositor e intérprete, Bonfá era en el fondo un exponente del estilo samba-canção audaz, lírico, exuberantemente orquestado y emocionalmente cargado que precedió a la llegada del estilo bossa nova más refinado y moderado de João Gilberto.
Aquí se presenta uno de sus mejores álbumes, Toca y canta Bossa Nova, en el que colabora con estrellas como Leo Wright, Oscar Castro-Neves y Lalo Schifrin. Este magnífico lanzamiento incluye la versión clásica de Bonfá de su melodía " Manhã de Carnaval "(también conocida como" Orfeo Negro"), entre muchos otros aspectos destacados.
