As one of the most loved jazz vocalists, modern jazz heroines, and prolific vocalists, Rosemary Clooney gives a very beautiful and feminine side to Brazilian jazz on Brazil, a sensitive musical feeling of 16 ripe standards. This wonderful collection is dedicated to Antonio Carlos Jobim, Frank Sinatra, and Nelson Riddle through her amazing ambience of sensitive phrasing, lovely nuance, and splendid rhythmic shadings. Rosemary Clooney is joined by the lovely Diana Krall on "Boy from Ipanema" in a stunning vocal duet accompanied by Oscar Castro-Neves on guitar. John Pizzarelli sings "Wave," with the light, airy brilliance of a light kept burning throughout the night, and duets with Clooney on "Desafinado," "One Note Samba," "Let Go," "Dindi," and the reprise of the title track, "Brazil." Together they bring a redefined sensitivity and captivation to these Brazilian standards through their excellent harmony and melodic concepts. The songs included on Brazil display the musical integrity, wisdom, and depth of Rosemary Clooney on songs that have withstood the test of popular culture and time. ~ Paula Edelstein Engineer: Leslie Ann Jones Musical Guests Diana Krall   Compilation Appearances Great Girl Singers Original Recordings 1952-57 1950's Volume 2 1950's Volume 1 Singin' With The Big Bands Vol. 1-Concord Jazz Christmas Concord Jazz Heritage Series S Jazz Singers Sing The Blues Midnight In The Garden Of Good And Evil Mob Hits Mickey Blue Eyes Jazz At Weeks End First Christmas Record For Chi (Bonus Tracks) Vol. 2-You're Sensational Cole Feeling Sentimental Jazz For Dads Vol. 5-Classic Songs Sultry Ladies Of Jazz How Great Thou Art Mostly Mercer Holiday Collection Swinging Jazz Club Radio Years Flower Drum Song Dance Parade/yourdance Date Essential George Gershwin (Limited Edition) Confessions Of A Dangerous Mind Rare Tony Pastor From The Columbia Lady Sings The Blues Concord Records 30th Anniversary Box Definitive American Songbook Vol.2 Tourch Songs Songbook Of Love It's De Lovely: Authentic Cole Porter Collection Jazz Moods: jazz At The North Pole Magic Moments: Best Of 50's Pop Classic Christmas (3 CD Set) Complete Columbia Xmas Recordings (rmst) First Fifteen Years 1939-54 Harold Arlen Centennial Celebration Reflections Of Rosemary Songs Of Inspiration Christmas Remixed, Vol. 2 Jazz Baby 1 Sultry Ladies Of Jazz Lost Highway Tribute To Hank Williams Gals Who Made The Big Bands Swing Fabulous 50'S Divas Sing Their Hard-to-find / Best Of Jimmy Boyd Treasury Of Christmas: The Greatest Holiday Duets All The 50s V2 Love Songs- The Essential Collection Lullabies For Jazzkids Of All Ages Pop Parade:hits Of The 40 50s 60s Great Ladies Of Jazz Musical Celebration Legendary Performers Sing The Songs O 50S Love Songs Life In Music:songwriter Composer Arr Joy Of Christmas Christmas With Sinatra and Friends Jingle Bells Centennial Celebration   Associated Artists and Works Reflections Of Rosemary ~ Boone, Debby Sweetest Sounds ~ Brown, Les Brown, Les Como, Perry Como, Perry Como, Perry Crosby, Bing Crosby, Bing Crosby, Bing Crosby, Bing Crosby, Bing Crosby, Bing McPartland, Marian Page, Patti Prado, Perez Prado, Perez Prado, Perez Stafford, Jo   Technical Info Release Date : 07/26/2004 Original Release Date : 2000 Catalog ID : 4884 Label : Concord Jazz Number of Discs : 1 Studio/Live : Studio Mono/Stereo : Stereo SPAR Code : n/a UPC : 00013431488422   Professional Reviews JazzTimes (12/00, p.124) - "...Clooney signs, stamps and sends 16 laid-back, lovely postcards....impeccably produced..."    Product Image
