CARLOS BARBOSA-LIMA — Plays The Music of Antonio Carlos Jobim & George Gershwin (1982-1990) FLAC (tracks+.cue), lossless

Carlos Barbosa-Lima is a superb Brazilian classical guitarist who has a beautiful tone. On his debut for Concord Concerto (the first of many releases), Barbosa-Lima performs six pieces by Antonio Carlos Jobim and eight by George Gershwin. The guitarist mixes together hits with some lesser-known tunes. Highlights include "Desafinado," "Corcovado," two of Gershwin's Preludes," "'S Wonderful" and "The Man I Love." Not an improviser, Barbosa-Lima worked out inventive and melodic renditions of these classic melodies, some of which are quite concise; "'S Wonderful" is only five seconds over a minute long. A strong example of the beautiful music of Carlos Barbosa-Lima. Scott Yanow
