Product Description

"Music Of The Brazilian Masters" by Laurindo Almeida is a captivating journey through the rich tapestry of Brazilian music, released on January 1, 1989, under the Concord Picante label. This album is a celebration of Brazilian jazz, bossa nova, and exotica, seamlessly blending traditional and contemporary sounds. Clocking in at just over an hour, the 16-track collection showcases Almeida's virtuosic guitar work and his deep respect for Brazilian musical heritage.

Almeida pays homage to legendary composers like Pixinguinha, Ernesto Nazareth, and Anacleto de Almeida with his renditions of "Retratos."
