Our Take

Get ready to samba, because Getz & Gilberto Getz in this latest album is a delightful fusion of bossa nova and jazz that will transport you straight to the streets of Rio de Janeiro.

The album kicks off with the smooth vocals of João Gilberto and the mesmerizing saxophone of Stan Getz, creating a dreamy atmosphere that will have you swaying in no time. The chemistry between the two musicians is undeniable, as they effortlessly play off each other's rhythms and melodies.

Tracks like "The Girl from Ipanema" and "Corcovado" showcase the Brazilian influences in the music, with infectious rhythms and lush arrangements that will have you feeling like you're lounging on a beach in Copacabana.

But don't be fooled by the laid-back vibes - there is plenty of complexity and nuance to be found in each track. The musicianship on display here is truly impressive, with intricate harmonies and dazzling solos that will leave you in awe.

So grab a caipirinha, kick back, and let Getz & Gilberto Getz take you on a musical journey like no other. This album is a must-listen for any jazz or bossa nova enthusiast, and proves once again that the classics never go out of style. Cheers to that!

About the artist

Stan Getz

GETZ & GILBERTO are the eclectic musical duo that shook up the jazz and bossa nova scene with their infectious rhythms and undeniable chemistry. Hailing from Brazil, saxophonist Stan Getz and singer/guitarist João Gilberto joined forces in the 1960s to create a sound that was equal parts sultry and smooth. Getz, known for his smooth saxophone playing, perfectly complemented Gilberto's laid-back vocals and breezy guitar melodies. Together, they created a sound that was both exotic and familiar, blending the cool jazz of the United States with the tropical rhythms of Brazil. Their groundbreaking album "Getz/Gilberto" is widely regarded as a classic of the bossa nova genre, and for good reason. Tracks like "The Girl from Ipanema" and "Corcovado" effortlessly blend together lush harmonies, intricate melodies, and subtle rhythms to create a musical experience that is both relaxing and invigorating. But what really sets GETZ & GILBERTO apart is their impeccable sense of timing and dynamics. Getz's smooth saxophone lines weave in and out of Gilberto's gentle vocals, creating a musical dialogue that is at once playful and profound. Their music is the perfect soundtrack for a lazy afternoon in the sun or a romantic evening under the stars. In short, GETZ & GILBERTO are a musical duo that defies categorization. Their music is at once timeless and modern, classic and innovative. So sit back, relax, and let the sounds of GETZ & GILBERTO transport you to a tropical paradise where the sun is always shining and the music never stops.
