Distributor: Universal Distribution Notes: This entry in Verve's series of budget-priced CD EPs designed for "people on the go" features a brief overview of the work of one of the chief architects of Brazilian bossa nova, Antonio Carlos Jobim, including his signature "Girl from Ipanema," the sublime "Corcovado," and the ingenious "Samba De Uma Nota So (One Note Samba)."
Antonio Carlos Jobim is one of the founding figures of bossa nova. Starting with his work with guitarist Joao Gilberto in the late 1950s ("Chega de Saudade," "Desafinado"), Jobim composed a string of unforgettable songs that combined subtle rhythms, modern harmony, and poetic lyrics, and which quickly found their way from Brazil to the rest of the world. His music has been performed and recorded by countless musicians, and by the time of his death in 1994, Jobim was widely regarded as one of the great composers of popular song.
