A Great Concert, Captured

(5 out of 5 stars)
"If you know the music of Carol Saboya or Antonio Adolfo from other recordings, you'll jump at this chance to hear them performing live with an excellent group of musicians. If you're not familiar with them, this is a great way to begin. Antonio Adolfo is one of the more important musicians in Brazil over the past 3 or 4 decades, as pianist, composer, arranger, bandleader, producer, you name it. Carol Saboya, who happens to be his daughter, is one of the best singers performing today in the bossa nova tradition. This concert recording perfectly balances the spontaneity of live performance with a wonderfully arranged and well-rehearsed program. I only wish I could have experienced this concert live, but this CD is next best. A superb musical offering."
