I discovered Astrud Gilberto quite by accident when rummaging thru my sister's extensive jazz album collection...

Really wanted to hear her defintive interpretations of 'Corcovado' (after being captivated by EBTG's brilliant drum 'n bass remake) and the seminal standard 'The Girl From Ipanema', and am really enjoying this album.

There are stories that only become better with time. Depending on who tells them, of course.
Eliane Elias is not only a talented pianist, but also a wonderful singer, reminescent of Astrud Gilberto, but in her own right.
This disk has such wonderfully fresh takes on classic bossa nova as "The Girl From Ipanema" and "Desafinado", as well as jazz standards like "They Can't Take That Away From Me" or "Day By Day". And even a great version of Stevie Wonder's "Superwoman".
Also pay attention to Ivan Lins, brilliant as ever, in "I'm Not Alone". Another special guest star is Toots Thielmans and Oscar Castro Neves is an exceptional guitar player.
This is music both for bossa nova lovers and those who have never even heard of it before. After listening to it they are going to become ... Read More

Our daughter still sleeps in our room. She listens to this during her bedtime routine and falls asleep listening to it. Even my husband likes to leave this CD on as we go to bed hours later - it's so soothing! Very mellow. Beautiful sounds.

Elias has matured over the years, and in this CD, has delivered one of her best. It's crisp, lively, enthusiastic, and precise. If you're an Elias fan, you'll like this one.

I really enjoy listening to Wave. I find the sound relaxing and the songs enjoyable. I recently started listening to the famous Getz/Gilberto album and I wanted to pickup albums from some of the other artists featured on it, hence Wave. Good album and I would recommend it to anyone who liked Getz/Gilberto.

Beware - the Amazon track listing lists the song writers, not the artists. For instance 'Isn't She Lovely' lists Stevie Wonder but on the CD the song is sung by Livingston Taylor - not a bad rendition but not what I was expecting.

This is a Chesky label compilation (sp?) CD. Title should be "World's Greatist Audophile Vocal Recordings On Our Label"

I should return the CD but don't feel like going to the trouble.

Astrud Gilberto was the Brazilian Dionysian lark per excellence and the embodiment of the sensuality, lyricism and tropical alluring of the best known Latin American music all over the world. Despite the terrible circumstances that made she left us before the used, she found in Antonio Carlos Jobim the perfect key for her to exhibit her sensitiveness, charisma and unforgettable charm.

This album picks up a very significant part of her musical legacy.
