Milton

by Milton Nascimento

Aimed specifically at breaking into the North American market, the Brazilian master enlists elite jazz fusion personnel—including Wayne Shorter and Herbie Hancock—to reimagine his complex acoustic compositions. The pristine, sophisticated production perfectly frames his astonishing vocal range and unique melodic sensibility. The album successfully introduced his deeply emotional, progressive MPB sound to a global jazz audience without compromising its inherent Brazilian essence.
