A heartfelt rendition
Marcos Montes | Buenos Aires Argentina | 03/24/2001
(5 out of 5 stars)

"Would you like to get a load of the real thing? The way leny Andrade faces Tom Jobim's lyrics is unparalleled. As Brazilian producer Almir Chediak put it, this album focuses on the lyrics this genius wrote. Although bossa nova stands out as a mainly rhythmic music style (the kind that makes you sway and move your hip imperceptibly)the poetry inherent in Jobims tunes is really forceful, and its drive and sensitivity have not been deeply interpreted. Leny Andrade lends her alto, earthy voice and makes the most of Corcovado, Aguas de marco, Ligia, Ana Luisa, Angela, Wave, and many other songs. Cristovao Bastos' piano is sparse and thoughful. This is no samba-carnival stuff: it's the quality of two great artists revering a musical master."
A Tremendous Performer on Antonio Carlos Jobim
Carlos from Rio | Rio de Janeiro, RJ Brazil | 05/18/2003
(4 out of 5 stars)

"Leny Andrade is typically and historically the perfect Bossa Nova singer since her first recording in the late 50s. Once a year she sings at New York's "Blue Note" and shen also performs many jazz festivals around the world. Great Leny!Leny Andrade is also one of those performers who knows how to choose the best musicians and arrangers from the top list of Brazilian industry.This album presents a voice and piano duo with one of the greats in Brazil, pianist Cristóvão Bastos. And material is Tom Jobim in Portuguese. High class!"
