Naissance de la bossa nova: Anthologie d'Alain Gerber

~ Release by Various Artists (see all versions of this release, 1 available)

Annotation

A look at the birth of bossa nova – a package that not only looks at key early tracks from Brazil, but one that also traces the way that American jazz musicians quickly picked up the new rhythm and made it their own. The set's done in connection with a French language book of the same title. It comes with a 32-page booklet of notes in French.
