A melancholic bossa nova spun by the piano
A masterpiece in which Oscar Peterson reconstructs the charm of Brazilian music from the perspective of jazz piano.
Peterson interprets bossa nova classics such as "Tristeza" with his unique swing sensibility. The granular sound born from his elegant touch successfully gives the songs a new expression without losing the melancholy of the originals. This is a valuable record that shows the happy encounter between jazz and Brazilian music.
