Brazilian Music

We featured Astrud Gilberto back in March 2008. Here is another video entitled The Girl from Ipanema, a song from 1964. Enjoy!

Sergio Mendes & the Brazil 66 is a Grammy award winning musician that composes music in a variety of different styles including bossa nova and samba.

Luiz Bonfa is a very well known Brazilian composer and is most noted and respected for the work that he did on the film Black Orpheus.

Rosa Passos is a cool and soulful bossa nova singer that has carried the sound into the new age.  She is trendy and exciting and reminds me of a modern day Nat King Cole with the rhythms and ebs and flows of her voice.
