This longstanding Verve Records classic from Astrud Gilberto finds the Brazilian songstress spreading her musical wings beyond her former bossa nova repertoire and interpreting such musical landmarks as "Fly Me to the Moon," "Morning of the Carnaval" and the title track with both style and grace.
Memorable, Breathy and Delicate Vocals. Three outstanding arrangers have produced a variety of orchestral settings that perfectly enhance the vocalist and the song: Don Sebesky, Joao Donato, and Claus Ogerman. And, as on her other Verve LP programs, Astrud's voice is beautifully complemented by great jazz soloists. Recorded by Bob Simpson, Phil Ramone and Rudy Van Gelder in New York City, 1964 / 1965.
