Jacintha picks up the tempo on her first bossa nova session. Featuring a program of some of the most well known classics of the genre, including several Jobim favorites like "So Nice," "Desafinado," "Dindi" and "Corcovado, as well as less familiar tunes like "O Ganso" and "So Danco Samba," this CD is a striking change of pace for Jacintha. With superb work from tenor Harry Allen and guitarist John Pisano (ex-Diane Krall), the album's supreme finishing is the magical playing of legendary Brazilian master percussionist Paolihno Da Costa who blesses the entire album with an authentic bossa nova vibe.
