The Best Of Brazil<br />

Vinícius de Moraes is one of<br />

the most fundamental figures<br />

in Brazilian music. He wrote<br />

the lyrics for some of Bossa<br />

Nova’s most important songs,<br />

such as "Garota de<br />

Ipanema", "Chega de<br />

Saudade", "Eu Sei que Vou<br />

Te Amar", "Amor em Paz",<br />

"Insensatez", "Se Todos<br />

Fosse Iguais a Você" (all of<br />

them with Tom Jobim),<br />

"Minha Namorada", "Coisa<br />

Mais Linda" and "Você e Eu"<br />

(with Carlos Lyra), as well as<br />

many samba classics. This<br />

<strong>24</strong>-track comp collects the<br />

greatest moments of a<br />

spectacular career.<br />

Composer, singer, poet<br />

and writer, Buarque is a<br />

towering legend of<br />

Brazilian music, possibly<br />

even the greatest Brazilian<br />

musician of the 20th<br />

Century. Although he was<br />

a contemporary of<br />

tropicalia artists like<br />

Caetano Veloso and<br />

Gilberto Gil during the<br />

turbulent 60s, he never<br />

adopted their poporientated<br />

approach;<br />

instead he aligned himself<br />

with the more traditional<br />

music of Antonio Carlos<br />

Jobim or Vinicius De<br />

Moraes. This 23-track<br />

compilation is resplendent<br />

with first-class MPB and<br />

classic samba.<br />

Nara Leão, the Musa da<br />

Bossa Nova was a prominent<br />

figure in bossa nova. She<br />

didn't restrict herself as a<br />

bossa nova singer, though,<br />

and was one of the first<br />

artists to engage in the<br />

movement later known as<br />

"canção de protesto" (protest<br />

song), an artistic movement<br />

which denounced military<br />

dictatorship in Brazil. She<br />

launched the careers of such<br />

composers/interpreters as<br />

Chico Buarque, Martinho da<br />

Vila, Edu Lobo, Paulinho da<br />

Viola, and many more.<br />

** RE-SOLICITATION **<br />

Jobim’s output was quite<br />

extraordinary, composing<br />

over 400 songs - many of<br />

them amongst the very<br />

best of the 20th Century.<br />

They included such pieces<br />

as “Samba do Avião”,<br />

“Agua De Beber”,<br />

“Desafinado”,<br />

“Insensataz”, “Corcovado”<br />

, “Wave”, the breathtaking<br />

“Chega de Saudade”, and<br />

of course, “The Girl From<br />

Ipanema” - with 4.2 million<br />

registered performances, it<br />

remains among the world’s<br />

most widely loved &<br />

performed popular songs.<br />
