Good morning.

Today we’re listening to Antônio Carlos Jobim, a Brazilian composer and pianist. Considered the father of bossanova music, Jobim wrote many of that genre’s standards: “The Girl from Ipanema,” “Desafinado,” “Águas de Março,” etc. We’ve included the 1963 album The Composer of “Desafinado” Plays, on which Jobim plays several of his popular compositions with an orchestra. But first we’re playing 1967’s Wave, a collection of cool bossanova instrumentals. Its album cover is one of our favorite of all time (see below). Third we’re playing the classic 1965 album Getz/Gilberto on which Jobim composed and played piano. It was the first jazz album to win the Grammy for album of the year.
