The music of Brazil has left a treasure trove of unparalleled compositional gems, none as beloved as the catalog of Antonio Carlos Jobim. A genius in utilizing the cool of jazz, the seductiveness of Brazil and the lyricism of a poet, Jobim has left a wake that has rocked the musical world with the spawning of the bossa nova movement. It takes a true master to approach a catalog so well known and beloved and to transform it with his own touch. Vinicius Cantuaria has taken care with the work of Jobim and reimagined it with his own voice. Vinicius canta Antonio Carlos Jobim is a tribute to the bard's tremendous legacy and to the generation that followed in humbleness.
