Breno Sauer e Seu Conjunto - Viva a Bossa! (1963)

Good Morning! This is probably one of the earliest LPs released by Breno Sauer Quarteto, here as Breno Sauer e seu Conjunto. The release date is uncertain, probably recorded by an early Breno in Porto Alegre, Breno's hometown in south of Brazil.

Breno Sauer was influenced by Musica Regional, which is made up of guitar, accordion, flute, pandeiro and cavaquinho. The sound of the accordion is on all tracks of this LP.

Later on, Breno Sauer has assembled Breno Sauer Quarteto, releasing the successful LPs 4 na Bossa and 4 no Sucesso.

That's all zecalouro knows. This is a very nice easy-listening Bossa Jazz LP with the unusual sound of accordion with a vibraphone dueling with a very well played piano. Tracks include Jobim and Bossa Nova classics.
