Ary Barroso - Encontro com Ary (1955)

Hello, good day! This is unique and really cool. Ary Barroso recorded this album in 1955 with the purpose of creating a legacy for future generations to listen to his work and learn about his music. I think Ary Barroso would be really pleased to see his message reaching so many people over the Internet 55 years before this album was released. Let's see.

This is Ary Barroso - Encontro com Ary (1955), for Copacabana, featuring Ary Barroso playing piano, chatting and singing his own compositions. I'm making available Ary's message using a hi-res scan from my copy, which is not the first 1955 Copacabana's issue, but a 1964 reissue. It is nice to see that Copacanana kept the same artwork for front and back covers. It is also mandatory to check Daniella Thompson's Ary Barroso Discography for additional details on this nice album, including an English translation of Ary Barroso's message. Tracks include:
