In Montreal

CD-Charts > Music > Brazilian Jazz
by: Charlie Haden & Egberto Gismonti

Release Date August 21, 2001
There are many venues for Charlie Haden's talents, from the large, politically charged ensemble, Liberation Music Orchestra (co-founded with Carla Bley) to the trios with Enrico Pieranunzi, Paul Motian and Gerri Allen, Egberto Gismonte and Jan Garbarek, Metheny and Billy Higgins and early Keith Jarrett trios and quartets. Along the way there have been a number of one-time smaller group projects aside from the Quartet West group. These have featured the likes of Brad Mehldau, Ornette Coleman, Lee Konitz, Michael Brecker, etc.

A Day in New York

CD-Charts > Music > Brazilian Jazz
by: Morelenbaum2/Sakamoto

Release Date May 27, 2003
You think of Samba and immediately you conjure visions of georgous beaches in Rio, tan ladies in bikinis, swaying palm trees...Yea, you get the picture. Perhaps fittingly A Day In New York evokes the feel of a rainy chilly day in Soho or any other New York Neighborhood. This is not to say you'll catch any references to Gotham. This is still samba, but there are elements in this Morelenbaum2/Sakamoto collaboration that are as diverse as the neighborhoods that make up the big apple. A Day In New York is like going to a great fushion restaurant. There are plenty of suberb ones almost anywhere in Soho, Trbecca, the East Village or even Chelsea. Variety, especially when blended together by great chefs or gifted musicaians is always a rare treat. So listen for all ... Read More:

Compact Jazz: Astrud Gilberto

CD-Charts > Music > Brazilian Jazz
by: Astrud Gilberto

Release Date October 25, 1990
I find it astounding that her own husband frowned on her singing "The Girl from Ipanema" on the Getz/Gilberto thing. Astrud is not a one hit wonder. I have yet to find a song from her that is even average. Thank you Joao for giving in and Astrud for giving us Bebel.
