Stan Getz Luiz Bonf – Jazz Samba Encore!

Description

Recorded in February and March of 1963 and released later that year on Verve, Jazz Samba Encore reunites Stan Getz with Luiz Bonfá and Maria Toledo in a more intimate, introspective setting than the landmark Jazz Samba, shaped by Bonfį’s darker harmonic palette, Toledo’s distinctive vocal and percussive presence, and Getz’s warm, unhurried lyricism. Blending Bonfį’s originals with works by Antōnio Carlos Jobim, including “Só Danēo Samba” and “Insensatez,” the album deepens the evolving dialogue between Brazilian songcraft and American jazz phrasing, with Bonfá’s nylon-string guitar providing a subtle rhythmic and harmonic anchor and Toledo adding textural and emotional nuance. Featuring Jobim on several tracks, the session captures bossa nova’s transition from global sensation to mature artistic exchange, resulting in one of Getz’s most atmospheric and enduring Verve recordings.

Verve’s Acoustic Sounds Series features transfers from analog tapes and remastered 180-gram vinyl in deluxe gatefold packaging.
