La edición de él Records de "Sinfonia Do Rio De Janeiro" de Antonio Carlos Jobim


Estoy disfrutando enormemente el libro de Ruy Castro sobre la bossa nova (eternamente agadecido, Carlos) y eso que sólo lo estoy empezando. En el periodo pre-bossa se narra con muchos detalles la gestación de esta "Sinfonia Do Rio De Janeiro" y buscando información me doy cuenta de que esto lo reeditó Mr.Mike Alway a través de él Records. Lo mejor es que la reedición lleva también la magnífica "Teresa da Pravia" de Farney/Alves (buenísimo lo de los club de fans que cuenta Castro en el libro). Este Mr. Alway si que sabe:

Antonio Carlos Jobim was the artchitect of Bossa Nova, the writer of "The Girl from Ipanema" and many of the other Bossa standards. One of the 20th century's most gifted songwriters. A figure as symbolic of Brazil as Gershwin is of America or as Lennon & McCartney are of Britain. Influenced by Chopin and George Gershwin, Jobim brought a refinement to Brazilian music in the first half of the fifties and this compilation showcases his brilliant, early recordings including "Teresa of the Beach" a number one hit for Dick Farney and Lucio Alvesand the long original "Sinfonia Do Rio de Janeiro", a suite of ballads and sambas evoking the sun and sea and describing the beauties of Rio in those times. These historic and valuable recordings have never previously been released outside of Brazil.
