Ana Caram "Live in Concert"

"Great singer
beautiful guitar" Antonio Carlos Jobim
Hailed as one of the most important contemporary Brazilian
vocalist-guitarist, Ana Caram the silken voiced bossa goddess has
earned much admiration and accolades over the years for her unique
blending of sensual bossa novas and swinging sambas. Her beautiful
and captivating renditions of the beloved songs of her late friend
and mentor, the legendary Antonio Carlos Jobim, have blessed
listeners worldwide. Like Jobim, Caram delivers haunting, subtle
melodies melded to jazz improvisations accompanied by her own
guitar playing with an infectious swing.
Highlights of Ana Caram's career spanning nearly two decades,
includes a recent performance with Al Jarreau at the Parliament
Jazz Festival in Moscow and unforgettable classics like
"Meditation" recorded with the master, Jobim himself,
collaborations with Jean Paul Bluey Maunick of Incognito, Paquito
D'Rivera, and raving critics in the major publications (Down Beat,
Billboard, JazzTimes, Stereophile, The New York Times, etc).
Hear songs of Jobim and other popular Brazilian composers in this
concert thats pure bossa nova all the way with the soothing,
exotic vocals and sensitive guitar work of Ana Caram accompanied on
sax/flute by her longtime musical arranger, the wonderful Steve
Sacks.
