Amor de gente moça

Album Notes & Community Reviews

As one of the earliest and most vital female vocalists to champion the emerging bossa nova movement, Telles perfectly bridges the gap between classic samba-canção and modern rhythmic syncopation. The album features early, definitive interpretations of compositions by Antônio Carlos Jobim, framed by incredibly lush, jazz-inflected orchestral arrangements. Her incredibly smooth, slightly breathy delivery helped define the sophisticated vocal aesthetic of the entire genre.
