Album Notes & Community Reviews

In one of her final studio recordings, the legendary jazz vocalist reunited with producer S茅rgio Mendes for a lush exploration of Brazilian popular music. 'Brazilian Romance' wraps Vaughan's impossibly rich, operatic vibrato in sweeping string arrangements and gentle bossa nova rhythms. The album serves as a gorgeous, sophisticated swan song highlighting her enduring interpretive mastery.
