It is amazing how maturity makes us take things from a different perspective. That's the feeling I had when took this album again for a hearing, perhaps after more than a decade interval. My previous opinion was of a dated album, which got stuck in time through a style of interpretation and arrangements that was out of my preferences. However, since the day Jose Matos gave it to our community, I take it for a spin every day. Thank you again Jose Matos. Now it is time to show it to Loronixers. Let's see.This is Lenita Bruno e Orquestra - Musica: Antonio Carlos Jobim, Poesia: Vinicius de Moraes | Por Toda Minha Vida (1959), for Festa, featuring arrangements by Maestro Leo Peracchi, Lenita Bruno's husband at that time and not credited at the album due contractual obligations with Odeon. It is really nice to hear very different renditions of well-known Antonio Carlos Jobim and Vinicius de Moraes music with the beautiful Lenita Bruno lyric singing with the reduced, but perfectly adequate arrangements by Maestro Leo Peracchi. Maestro Radames Gnattali plays piano at Canta, Canta Mais, which is the track selected to Loronix Preview Center. I made several attempts to clean the back cover with no success; it brings liner notes by Antonio Carlos Jobim. You will find a version with no image processing inside the music. If someone skilled on Photoshop can make it, I will really appreciate. Tracks include:
01 - Por Toda Minha Vida (Tom Jobim / Vinicius de Moraes)
02 - Serenata do Adeus (Vinicius de Moraes)
03 - Estrada Branca (Tom Jobim / Vinicius de Moraes)
04 - Soneto da Separação (Tom Jobim / Vinicius de Moraes)
05 - Valsa de Orfeu (Vinicius de Moraes)
06 - Canção de Amor Demais (Tom Jobim / Vinicius de Moraes)
07 - As Praias Desertas (Tom Jobim)
08 - Eu Sei Que Vou Te Amar (Tom Jobim / Vinicius de Moraes)
09 - Canta Canta Mais (Tom Jobim / Vinicius de Moraes)
10 - Modinha (Tom Jobim / Vinicius de Moraes)
11 - Cai a Tarde (Tom Jobim)
12 - Sem Você (Tom Jobim / Vinicius de Moraes)
13 - Eu Não Existo Sem Você (Tom Jobim / Vinicius de Moraes)
